Hello Fresh Corn Chowder Recipe

Corn chowder can make even a busy weeknight feel like an "easy like Sunday mornin'' day!
This Hello Fresh version brings a creamy base, tender potatoes, and bursts of corn in every spoonful.
I always use in-season corn if I can—cutting it off the cob gives the soup so much texture! (Frozen works great too).
The broth thickens just right with a touch of flour, so don’t skip this step, guys!
Chopping the veggies ahead can help streamline the process and get this on the table faster. So...you can east sooner!
