CREAMY CORN SOUP WITH CRISPY BACON

Steps:

• Shuck the corn. Break each ear in half. Standing each one vertically on a cutting board, use a serrated knife to cut off the kernels. Save the cobs.
• In a pot, combine the corn, cobs, potato, almond milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and some freshly ground pepper. Simmer until the potatoes are soft (there's a big range for exactly how long this will be - once the pot is boiling, figure somewhere around 10 minutes and taste 'em as you go.) Remove and discard the corn cobs. Transfer the soup to a blender and puree. Strain back into the pot. Taste for salt, adding more if needed.
• While the soup is simmering, cook the bacon until crispy in a hot frying pan or a 400 degrees F oven. Cut each slice in half. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish each with 3 half slices of bacon and basil leaves.

CREAMY HAM AND CORN CHOWDER

Steps:

• On a firm non-breakable surface, take a clean hammer and crack the middle of the ham bone so that marrow can escape during cooking.
• Place ham bone flat in the bottom of a pot and add enough water to just cover.
• Simmer over medium heat for 30 minutes.
• Remove bone and cut off the remaining tender ham meat; set meat aside.
• Turn up the heat on the ham broth and reduce down until you have about a couple of cups of broth, or to desired strength.
• Skim the fat from the broth.
• Melt butter in a large pan; remove from heat and mix in flour until smooth.
• Slowly add 1 cup milk, stirring constantly.
• Return pan to stove and cook on low heat until milk thickens.
• Stir the corn, the ham pieces you set aside earlier, dried minced onion, and minced garlic into thickened milk; then slowly stir in the remaining milk and the ham broth.
• Cook on low for about 15 minutes, but do not boil.
• Add salt, pepper, and paprika to taste.
• *Note: how much meat you leave on the bone is up to you, but I like to have a couple of cups of ham bits mixed into this chowder.
• Optional: you can add a cup of cooked, chopped potato chunks to the soup near the end of the cooking, if you like.
