INSTRUCTIONS

Make the purée: Broil the jalapeños on the rack of a broiler pan
under a preheated broiler about 2 inches from the heat, turning them
every 5 minutes, for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the skins are
blistered and charred. Transfer the jalapeños to a bowl and let them
stand, covered tightly, until they are cool enough to handle. Wearing
rubber gloves, peel the jalapeños, cut off the tops, and discard all
but 1 teaspoon of the seeds. In a blender purée the jalapeños with
the seeds, the oil, the lime juice, the water, the garlic, the
parsley, and salt to taste. The purée may be made 3 days in advance
and kept covered and chilled.  Make the chowder: In a kettle cook the
onion and the celery in the  oil over moderate heat, stirring, until
the celery is softened, add  the broth, the water, the potatoes, peeled
and cut into 3/8-inch  cubes, and the ham, and simmer the mixture for
10 minutes. Stir in  the corn and the thyme and simmer the chowder for
5 minutes, or until  the potatoes are tender. In a blender or food
processor purée 2 cups  of the chowder and stir the purée into the
remaining chowder.  Serve the chowder with a small dollop of the
jalapeño and parsley  purée swirled into it.  Makes about 8 cups,
serving 4 to 6.  Gourmet July 1992  Recipe by: Gourmet July 1992
