1 (15 1/4 ounce) can whole corn (or grilled fresh corn on the cob kernels removed is really good!)
1 (8 ounce) jar clam broth

1 cup light cream
salt and pepper
Old Bay Seasoning

This was a great clam-CORN chowder recipe, which is what I was looking for. Didn't have leeks on hand. Used 1can evap. milk and 2 cups skim milk. Thickened with corn starch Also loved the fact that there is no bacon, my husband doesn't eat pork. My whole family loved it and I will make it again. If you aren't looking to taste the corn, choose another recipe without it in the recipe title.

Delicious and hearty chowder! It's one of the best chowders I've ever had. The corn gave it a nice sort of sweetness. I used green bell pepper in place of red and frozen corn for the 1 can of whole corn. I'll definitely make this again. Thanx for sharing it!
