• Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the tomatillos, and boil for 10 minutes; drain.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the onions, and cook until they have softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the hominy, marjoram, and thyme, cook and stir 5 minutes more. Pour in the milk, parsley, and half of the corn kernels, and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.
• Puree the tomatillos with the remaining half of the corn until smooth in a blender, then stir into the soup along with the roasted peppers. Simmer the soup for 10 minutes, then remove the parsley sprigs, and sprinkle with cilantro before serving.

SHRIMP AND WHITE CORN (HOMINY) CHOWDER

Steps:

• Melt butter in large stock pot.
• Saute onion, celery and carrot until tender, about 15 minutes.
• Add salt, pepper, cayenne and cloves.
• Add chicken broth and simmer for 15 minutes.
• Using a hand held blender, blend until smooth (I don't have one of these so I use my food processor in batches or electric blender. Or if you like your chowder with the chunks in it, as the recipe owner does, you can skip this step completely).
• Add hominy and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Mix 1 cup of the half and half with flour until smooth and add to stock pot.
• Add sugar, remaining half and half and shrimp. Bring mixture to the point of almost boiling.
• Add cheese and heat thoroughly, stirring until cheese is melted and soup is creamy.
