You&#8217;ll need one medium white or yellow onion, although shallots would work too.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Butter:<\/strong> Butter is essential for a creamy, buttery chowder. You&#8217;ll need 5 tablespoons worth, but you could also employ <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/vegan-butter\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/vegan-butter\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">vegan butter<\/a> if you&#8217;re going the dairy-free route.<\/li>\n<li><strong>All-purpose flour:<\/strong> Flour is the key thickening agent for your chowder and a crucial ingredient for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-make-roux\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-make-roux\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">roux<\/a>, to keep the soup from being watery or too thin.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Milk:<\/strong> This is another dairy binder that creates the base for the chowder. We like whole milk for a velvety, luscious crab chowder, but you can use 1% or reduced-fat, if that&#8217;s what you have on hand.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bacon:<\/strong> We&#8217;ve never met a chowder that didn&#8217;t benefit from bacon. You&#8217;ll need four bacon strips, cooked and crumbled, for the best-ever garnish on top of this chunky soup.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Crabmeat:<\/strong> If you&#8217;re picky about your crabmeat, go with what you love. Canned (and drained) works great, or feel free to sub in jumbo lump crabmeat for a decadent, fresh-as-can-be chowder. Also, go with what you can find.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Potatoes:<\/strong> The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/potato-chowder\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/potato-chowder\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">best potatoes for chowder<\/a> are sturdy spuds like Yukon Golds or baby reds that absorb the flavors well without breaking down.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Green pepper:<\/strong> The peppers here add a bit of green and some welcome crunch.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Celery:<\/strong> Celery also sneaks in more veggies and gives a softer, toothsome texture to the chowder.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Corn:<\/strong> Aside from crabmeat, corn is the main power player in this soup. Canned or frozen corn kernels will get the job done, but bonus points if you shuck fresh corn and boil the cobs for creamy, milky kernels in your chowder.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Half-and-half cream:<\/strong> Cream thickens the chowder toward the end and complements the succulent crabmeat and juicy corn.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bay leaf:<\/strong> This is a big-time flavor booster that imparts complexity and umami. (Do remember to remove it before serving.)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Parsley:<\/strong> Chopped herby, peppery parsley is the final green garnish we love in this chowder.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Nutmeg:<\/strong> A sprinkle of ground nutmeg adds warmth and an earthy aroma as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Saute the onions<\/h3>\n\n<p>In a large saucepan, saute the chopped onions in butter until tender.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Make the roux<\/h3>\n<p>Add the flour to the same pan, cooking and stirring until thick and bubbly.

Julienned carrots would also be smart here.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make it more savory with stock:<\/strong> Since all the liquids in this chowder recipe are dairy-based, you could also add chicken broth or stock for more flavor and richness.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Spice it up:<\/strong> This chowder is on the mild side, flavor-wise, but could benefit from a few dashes of seafood soup-friendly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/old-bay-recipes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/old-bay-recipes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">Old Bay<\/a>, or a smidge of red pepper flakes for heat.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Finish strong:<\/strong> Don&#8217;t get us wrong\u2014chopped parsley and crumbled bacon bits are classic chowder toppers, but chopped chives and a dollop of creme fraiche would take it to the next level.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make it pescatarian:<\/strong> For a meat-free chowder, omit the bacon entirely and garnish with crispy fried onion strings instead.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Store Crab and Corn Chowder<\/h2>\n<p>This chowder is a perennial favorite\u2014ideal on a chilly winter day to warm up, or with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/lobster-rolls\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/lobster-rolls\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">lobster rolls<\/a> and seafood staples on a warm summer day. With that said, it&#8217;s mostly dairy, so we don&#8217;t advise leaving it sitting out in the sun. Any leftovers should be stored in sealed, airtight containers in the refrigerator until you&#8217;re ready for another helping.<\/p>\n<h3>How long does crab and corn chowder last?<\/h3>\n<p>Crab and corn soup will stay fresh for up to five days in the fridge.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you reheat crab and corn chowder?<\/h3>\n<p>We advise transferring the chowder to a saucepan and heating it gently over medium heat until it&#8217;s hot and cooked through, being careful not to let it boil. You could also pop a bowl in the microwave, but the stovetop method really is best. Then garnish with your toppings of choice.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you freeze crab and corn chowder?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes and no. Can you? Yes. Should you? It depends whether you&#8217;ve already added cream. Creamy seafood soups don&#8217;t freeze or thaw that well, so we suggest freezing the chowder <em>before<\/em> adding the cream for the best results when you go to defrost it. You can store frozen leftovers for up to four months this way.<\/p>\n<h2>Crab and Corn Chowder Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2018884\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Crab-and-Corn-Chowder_TOHD24_5654_AlejandroMonfort_5.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Taste Of Home Crab And Corn Chowder\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Alejandro Monfort for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"JlqpRe\"><span class=\"JCzEY tNxQIb\"><span class=\"CSkcDe\">What two ingredients must be present for the soup to be called a chowder?<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Traditionally speaking, chowders always contain seafood and veggies, and most times, potatoes and onions. This creamy crab corn chowder has all these ingredients and more! So you know you&#8217;re in for a classic, just revamped with a bit of umami flavors and crunchy, verdant garnishes.<\/p>\n<h3>Why is my corn chowder watery?<\/h3>\n<p>It might not be ready yet. Chowders need to simmer for a while to merge all their flavors\u2014and to thicken up. Be patient and give it a few more minutes until it reaches a less soupy state.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you thicken crab and corn chowder?<\/h3>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve played the waiting game and your chowder is still reading\u2014and tasting\u2014thin, make a quick slurry on the side with a teaspoon of cornstarch dissolved in cold water. Slowly add this to the soup and watch as it thickens immediately.<\/p>\n<h3>How do I make crab and corn chowder better?<\/h3>\n<p>We already know this chowder is heavy on dairy, but it&#8217;s also on the sweeter side, thanks to the corn and crab. To balance the flavors, add some acidity with a squeeze of lemon juice or a splash of white wine after your onion is sauteed and before you add the dairy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Looking for a hearty, delicious soup?
