Pressure Cooker Corn Chowder
Rich, hearty chowder with a twist—swaps some ingredients and adjusts steps for texture and flavor. Uses Instant Pot sauté to build depth, then pressure cooks to soften veggies, enhancing natural sweetness. Cream and cornstarch bring body and some silky cohesion but leave bits of texture. Incorporates smoked paprika and a pinch of thyme instead of bay leaf for earthiness. Half and half replaces heavy cream to lighten while keeping creaminess intact. Sweet potato stands in for regular spud, adding vibrant color and subtle sweetness. Timing adapted to capture optimal tenderness without mush.
Shrimp Corn Chowder
A hearty chowder with a lightly smoky bacon base, creamy potatoes, fresh corn, and Cajun-seasoned shrimp. Switched clams juice with seafood broth for depth. Slightly reduced starch and boosted fat for silkiness. Simmered potatoes to tender bite, added shrimp late to keep texture intact. A squeeze of lime at the end for brightness. Bacon reserved for crisp garnish adds punch. Easy to swap cream for coconut milk if dairy-free. Perfect for using leftover shrimp, avoid overcooking or it gets rubbery.
