Tonight, I am very excited about my dinner. Usually, I just post recipes here without much personal input. Tonight is not that night! Now, I love a good chowder (clam, crab, corn...a lot of c's, right?), so I make it fairly frequently. I am usually limited to corn, because of budget, so I was so excited to hear about this new recipe! It's a roasted corn and potato chowder, instead of just a normal corn chowder! Roasted corn is probably the 9th wonder of the world, so I am hoping this dinner is amazing! I remember once in girl scout camp, we had a dinner with other troops, and they had roasted corn on the cob, wrapped in tin foil. I think I ate 4 or 5 cobs! So far the soup smells amazing, and I have about 10 minutes left for the flavors to get to know each other. My usual corn chowder recipe doesn't have potatoes, so I am also excited about that addition! I'll let you know about the final result!
Side note: I would make seafood chowders all the time if we had more money...nothing like some seafood in chowder! One of the best combinations is one from Whole Foods...blackened salmon, crab, and corn chowder...AHMAZING!
