Instant Pot Corn Chowder Recipe

Corn chowder has long been a popular american comfort food. One of the earliest known recipes for corn chowder was published in 1896 in fannie farmer's boston cooking school cookbook. The classic chowder included diced salt pork, onions, and potatoes. "Common" Crackers were added to thicken the milk-based soup. This instant pot corn chowder is a fast and easy soup with minimal prep. Bacon adds an extra layer of flavor, but the chowder can easily be converted to a vegetarian soup by omitting the bacon and replacing the chicken stock with vegetable broth. Garnish individual bowls of corn chowder with extra parsley, sliced green onions, or shredded cheese and serve with crackers.
