Steps:

• Cook bacon in a medium-size Dutch oven over medium, stirring occasionally, until crisp, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain bacon on paper towels, reserving 2 tablespoons drippings in Dutch oven.
• Add bell pepper, onion, celery, and jalapeño to drippings in Dutch oven; cook over medium-high, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, about 4 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk together stock and flour in a medium bowl until smooth.
• Stir stock mixture and corn into bell pepper mixture in Dutch oven. Bring to a boil over high. Reduce heat to low; simmer, stirring occasionally, until flavors meld, about 20 minutes. Gently stir in crabmeat, whipping cream, salt, Old Bay, and black pepper; cook, stirring often, until crab is heated through, about 4 minutes. Stir in cilantro. Divide chowder evenly among bowls; top with bacon, and garnish with additional cilantro and oyster crackers.

CRABMEAT AND CORN SOUP

Steps:

• In a heavy-bottomed pot, melt butter, add flour, and stir gently until blended; do not burn or let it darken. Add milk gradually, stirring all the while, then add half and half, stirring gently while blending. Add corn and green onions, and cook for a few minutes until tender.
• Add crabmeat, pepper, salt, and soy sauce and simmer until very hot and small bubbles form around the edge; do not let boil. Adjust seasonings to taste. Garnish with sprinkles of chopped fresh parsley when serving and serve hot.
• Variations: You may use 4 cobs of fresh corn instead of frozen or canned. Cut the kernels off the cob, scrape cob for juices, and then add to soup. Cook until corn is tender. Canned crabmeat or imitation crab may be used instead of fresh crabmeat. Use one 7 1/2-ounce can crabmeat (drained) and 8 ounces imitation crab (cut into small pieces). Combine the two and cook as noted above.

CORN AND CRAB CHOWDER RECIPE

Steps:

• Cut the salt pork or bacon into about ¼-inch cubes. If using bacon, this may be easier if you let the bacon sit in the freezer for a few minutes before dicing it.
• Add the pork or bacon to a heavy-bottomed saucepot or soup pot, and heat it slowly over a low heat, stirring more or less constantly, for 3 to 4 minutes or until the fat is liquefied. Be careful not to let the fat burn. Lower the heat if it starts to smoke.
• Add the chopped onion and cook it over a medium heat until it's translucent but not brown, another 4 minutes or so.
• Add the flour and stir with a wooden spoon while it's absorbed into the bacon fat, making a roux . Cook the roux for another 3 to 4 minutes, but like the onions, don't let it brown.
• Slowly whisk in the stock, making sure the roux is fully incorporated into the liquid. Keep stirring while the mixture comes to a boil, and then add the wine.
• Add the potatoes and simmer 15 minutes or so, or until you can easily pierce the potatoes with a knife.
• While you're waiting for the potatoes to cook, heat the half and half in a small saucepan. You want it hot (but not boiling) so that when you add it to the soup in the next step, it won't cool down the chowder.
• Add the corn and bring the chowder back to a simmer for just a moment. Then add the crab and stir in the hot half and half.
• Season to taste with Kosher salt and white pepper, and serve right away.

EASY CORN AND CRAB CHOWDER

Steps:

• Wrap potato cubes in plastic wrap, and microwave for 30 seconds. Set aside.
• In a saute pan, cook bacon over medium heat until heated through, and add chopped onions. Cook and stir until onions are clear. Stir in crab meat and parsley flakes. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in a large stock pot over low heat. Whisk in flour until mixture becomes creamy and takes on a eggshell color. Continue to cook for a few more minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in wine. Dissolve chicken bouillon in milk; when the flour mixture is crumbly, slowly whisk in the milk. Mix well in order to eliminate all lumps.
• When the mixture is creamy and hot, stir in bacon mixture, cubed potatoes, and creamed corn. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and simmer for 10 minutes.
• For a creamy curry variation add 2 tablespoons curry powder after adding the wine to the flour mixture, and substitute cooked, cubed chicken for the bacon.

CRAB & SWEETCORN CHOWDER

Steps:

• Put the onion, white part of the leek and carrots in a large pan and pour on a few tbsp of the stock. Cook over a medium heat for about 10 mins, stirring regularly until soft. Add a splash more stock if the vegetables start to stick.
• Add the potato, green leek and most of the stock, and simmer for 10-15 mins, until the potato is tender. Tip in the sweetcorn and crab meat, then cook for a further 1-2 mins. Remove from the heat and stir in the crème fraîche and some seasoning. Add the rest of the stock if the soup is too thick. Sprinkle with the chives and serve with brown bread, if you like.

SHERYL'S CORN AND CRAB CHOWDER

Steps:

• Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove the bacon, and reserve the grease. Allow the bacon to cool, then crumble, and set aside with the grease.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of clarified butter in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the onion, green pepper, celery, and garlic. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 10 minutes. Pour in the white wine and brandy, and bring to a simmer. Season with the basil, white pepper, cayenne pepper, thyme, and Worcestershire sauce. Add the corn and potatoes, then pour in the chicken stock. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer 10 minutes.
• While the soup is simmering, melt 1/2 cup of butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir in the flour, and cook, stirring constantly, until the flour has turned the color of peanut butter to make a roux, about 10 minutes.
• Stir the roux into the soup, and pour in the heavy cream, half-and-half cream, reserved bacon and grease, and shrimp. Return to a simmer over medium-high heat, and cook until the shrimp are no longer translucent in the center, the potatoes are tender, and the soup has thickened, about 15 minutes. Season to taste with Creole seasoning, and stir in the crab meat to serve.
