Ingredients

1/4 cup butter
6 tablespoon chopped onion
3/4 cup diced celery
2 1/2 cup hot water
2 medium boiling potatoes, peeled & cut
in 1/2 inch cubes (if you like potatoes,
use more)
3 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels,
thawed
2 tablespoons sugar (if this is too
sweet, use less)
2 teaspoons salt
dash of white pepper
3 tablespoons flour
1 quart of Half & Half


Instructions

Melt butter in saucepan. Add celery, onion and saute 5 minutes until soft, but not brown. Add water, potatoes, corn, sugar, salt and pepper. Cover and simmer until potatoes are barely tender, about 30 minutes. Whisk flour into 1 cup of Half & Half. Stir into soup. Add the remaining Half & Half. Simmer until soup has thickened to a creamy consistency, about 15 minutes. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper if needed. If too thick, add milk, if too thin, simmer 5-10 more minutes.
