This really is old fashioned! It comes from "The Culinary Arts Institute Encyclopedia of Cooking and Homemaking" which was published in 1940. This wonderful book has been passed down through 4 generations of women in my family. Proof that some of the best stuff is the oldest and simplest.

This was good, but not great. It wasn't as thick as I would have thought it would be, even though I used part Half and Half. I'm not sure if it was something I did, or not, though I followed the steps. I also think it could use something else, maybe garlic. I added some chopped up bacon as some of the other reviewers mentioned, which I think was good.

    So Delicious!!!! I made a few adjustments adding 3 strips precooked bacon (finely chopped), hot chicken stock instead of water, and cornstarch instead of flour to thicken. I also used 1 cup whole milk & 1 cup of Half and Half. I will be making this again & again. This soup is creamy, flavorful, and filling! Thanks Malriah

    I loved how easy this recipe was, and it sure tasted good too! I followed the instructions to the last letter, but since I had scaled down to 1 serving, my potatoes were cooked much faster. The combination of corn, potatoes, and milk is quite something! I had this with 7-Grain bread for a fabulous dinner. Thanks Kari!

    This is superb! Instead of flour mixed with water, I use a Tablespoon or more of dehydrated mashed potato flakes. It works great and keeps the flavor the same in the soup. Perfect if you (or a loved one) are gluten-intolerant.
