Ingredients
4 tablespoons butter or margarine 3 cups frozen corn, thawed 6 tablespoons onion, chopped 2 tablespoons sugar 3/4 cup celery, large dice 2 teaspoons salt 2 1/2 cups hot water 1 pinch white pepper 2 cups raw potato, peeled and cut in 1/2" cubes 3 tablespoons flour 1 quart Half & Half
Directions
(Yields 2 1/2 quarts)
Method

On medium heat, melt butter, then simmer onion and celery for 5 minutes until soft, but not brown.

Add water, potatoes, corn and seasonings. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes or until potatoes are barely tender.

Whisk the flour into 1 cup of the Half & Half, and stir into the soup. Add the remaining 3 cups of Half & Half. Simmer for about 15 minutes until the soup has thickened to a creamy consistency.

Correct the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed. In order to correct the consistency or the soup you may add a little milk to make it thinner. To make the soup thicker, simmer another 5-10 minutes.

    Just finished this. It was great. I made a double batch, I'm glad I did. I did not even miss the meat, but I did add extra corn and potaotes, and I need a bit more flour, but when you doulbe things you have to adjust. WONFERFUL, will make again and again. - 8/15/08
