As I said in class, I love ice cream. However, I'm going to talk about corn and cheese chowder because its more of a "real" meal and is more significant to me. The receipt is from a Moosewood cookbook.
This soup is so perfect. Its really creamy but not too thick at all. It has potatoes, onions, spices, and of course, corn and cheese. It's best to put in both sharp jack cheese and monteray jack cheese instead of all monteray jack cheese in order to make it have the perfect amount of spicy.
Corn and cheese chowder soup reminds me of christmas eve, which is my favorite holiday, partially because of our tradition with this soup. We have a christmas eve service at my Quaker meeting, and then our family (F)riends all come over and have soups. My mom spends all days making three different types of soup in HUGE pots. The one constant in the choice of soups is corn and cheese chowder, one of my favorite traditions ever! All the adults stand in the crowed kitchen drinking and eating soup, while the kids (under 20 or so) watch the same christmas special episode of Jackie Chan adventures that we have watched for 10 years, and eat soup. I absolutely love that night and love that soup.
