Chunky corn chowder
It's the first time I made a soup with corn-on-the cob. Where I live the maize is grown for the cattle.
Delicious!

Superhealthy - good source of vitamin C. This soup depends on the
freshest corn for its flavour. You can add the cobs, once you've cut
the kernels off, to the simmering soup for even more corn flavour.
Just remove them at the end of step 3.
1. Fry the bacon in a pan for about 10 mins until the fat runs out
and the bacon is crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon, drain on
kitchen paper and set aside.
2. Add onion, celery, garlic, thyme and a pinch of salt and pepper
to the fat in the pan. Cook over a medium heat for about 10 mins
until the onion is translucent. Do not brown. Add corn, potatoes,
bay leaf and stock.
3. Bring the soup to a boil over a high heat, then reduce to a
simmer. Cook for about 20 mins until the potatoes are very tender.
Discard the bay leaf. Add the milk and cream, and heat through. 4
Spoon a third of the soup into a blender and let cool slightly.
Puree until smooth, then return to the pot. Season to taste with
cayenne, salt and pepper. Heat through and ladle into bowls. Scatter
with the reserved bacon and the chives or spring onion.
