Do you recommend high on 4 or low on 8
I usually do 8 hours on low.
My favorite soup recipe ever! This is so delicious. I make it all the time. I recently had 10 family members staying with me for the weekend and made a batch of this to serve with sandwiches at lunch and everyone died over this soup. Perfect combination of flavors and creaminess. One question – is a serving size 2 cups? Thank you! I am going to check out your other soup recipes.
Hi! I’m unsure how much a serving size is. I usually guestimate how many it serves after I feed my family.
Can frozen potatoes be used in this receipe?
I think they should do fine.
I was thinking of using using sliced sausage. Do you think I should cook it beforehand like you did the bacon?
Could I leave the cream out?
Would red or russet potatoes be okay to use instead of the yukon gold?
Yes, russet will work great.
can you use chicken instead of bacon? or will it change the taste?
It will be different for sure, you can do it though!
This is a delicious chowder! I’ve made it twice now and the leftovers. taste wonderful too.
Do I drain the can of whole kernel corn? Recipe doesn’t say this, but the photo looks like it.
Yes, drain it. I will add that to the recipe.
Hi Sarah, this chowder comes out thin for me, is there any way to thicken it up just a little? Thanks!!
The potatoes won’t turn to mush being in the crockpot for 8 hours?
Not at all. They are just getting done getting tender at 8 hours.
We can’t get creamed corn in Denmark – how can I substitute it?
Hi Maria, could you blend up a can of corn slightly? With a splash of the liquid from the can. That would work fine.
Yes I could easily do that!
