Notes

For a richer flavor, consider roasting the tomatoes before adding them to the soup. If you like a chunkier texture, only blend half of the soup and mix it back in. If using frozen corn, rinse it under warm water before adding to the pot to ensure even cooking. Adjust the seasonings to taste, especially if you prefer a spicier chowder.
