INSTRUCTIONS
* (sometimes called "Whitewash" if uncooked ) For thickening to desired
consistency. It consists of equal parts of fat of some type and flour. For
this recipe I use 1/4 lb (1 stick) of *butter* and whisk in flour 'till
roux will barely drop from spoon. Cook just long enough to remove "floury"
taste--*do not* brown. Set aside.
**Chicken base or granules are quite salty. Taste for salt before adding
any table salt.
With a french knife/cook's knife, slice corn from cob. Lightly chop to
break up "strips" of kernels. Place in crockpot.
Wash and peel potatoes. Cut into medium size chunks. Place in crockpot.
If you want to use the onion, saut. in a little butter until translucent
and add to crock pot.
Add just enough *hot* tap water to barely cover potatoes.
Set crockpot on medium, cover and go do something else for about 4 hours.
When the potatoes test done, stir in chicken base and add 3 cups milk.
Bring back to simmer. Gently stir in roux a little at a time till desired
consistency is reached. Lower crockpot to "simmer" untill time to serve.
Stir in a generous shake or 2 of Accent at this point (if desired), and
serve.
If the chowder thickens considerably, thin with milk.
Makes 6 to 8 main dish servings (12 oz) or about 20 appetizer servings (6
oz.)
