Creamiest Vegan Corn Chowder - Vegetarian Recipes - Best Vegetarian Recipes
Creamiest Vegan Corn Chowder
Recipe By:allisonmdickson
"The base of this soup used to be a roux-thickened chicken broth with milk and cheese added. However, since becoming vegan, I had to adapt, and I'm proud to say that this version is thicker and creamier than the original, and it was all achieved without a drop of flour or milk. It's not only the best vegan corn chowder recipe I've had, but it's just plain the best corn chowder ever. Even my non-vegan family loves it, and they request it regularly. This recipe makes a lot, but it keeps and freezes very well."

Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 3 ribs celery, finely chopped
  • 3 carrots, finely chopped
  • 4 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and finely diced

  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 2 quarts vegetable broth
  • 8 cups fresh corn kernels, divided
  • 1 cup cashews
  • 1/3 cup nutritional yeast
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

  2. Pour vegetable broth and 6 cups corn kernels and into vegetable mixture and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until vegetables are tender, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove and discard bay leaves.
  3. Place remaining 2 cups corn kernels, cashews, and nutritional yeast into a blender and add several large spoonfuls of simmering broth to blender. Work in batches if necessary, filling blender no more than half full per batch. Cover lid with a dish towel and hold lid down; pulse a few times before leaving on to blend until smooth.
