Recipe Description:
Corn chowder is a popular late summer dish when the weather is just beginning to get cool. This chowder recipe takes advantage of local corn and new potatoes, made lighter by substituting heavy cream for almond milk. This dish is vegan and vegetarian friendly. Add a spoon or two of pepper relish to your bowl of soup for a fresh spicy topping.

- Remove corn cobs from roaster and discard.
- Add corn kernels to roaster. Turn heat back to medium and cover. When Vapo-Valve™ clicks steadily, reduce heat to low and cook for an additional 15 - 20 minutes until the corn is soft.
- Taste soup and season with salt and pepper as needed.
- In a small bowl mix together arrowroot powder and water until thoroughly combined.
