Corn Cob Chowder

• 6 ears fresh white sweet corn, kernels not too closely removed and each cob cut into three pieces
• 4 cups milk

Place the corn cobs in a soup kettle.

Add the milk and chicken stock. Bring to a boil and simmer for 1 hour.

Remove the cobs and add the corn kernels, salt and sugar. Continue to simmer as the corn cooks.

With a small spoon, scrape away the pulp from the cobs and add it to the chowder.
