BEST OYSTER CHOWDER EVER

Steps:

• Cook oysters and reserved liquid in a skillet over medium heat until edges curl, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove skillet from heat.
• Combine onion, potato, broccoli, water, and corn in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain vegetables and reserve liquid.
• Melt butter in a large pan over medium heat. Stir flour into melted butter until smooth, about 1 minute.

CORN AND OYSTER CHOWDER

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add the bacon, onions, celery, green pepper and garlic. Saute until the vegetables are soft and the bacon is crisp, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove and discard the garlic. With a slotted spoon transfer the bacon and vegetables to the bowl of a food processor.
• Drain the oysters and reserve the liquor. Add the oysters to the pan and saute just until the edges begin to curl, about 5 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove the oysters to the food processor. Add the salt, pepper and allspice. Pulse the mixture until the ingredients are coarsely chopped.
• Return the mixture to the saucepan and stir in the reserved oyster liquor.
• Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then stir in the corn, all but one tablespoon of the parsley and the bourbon, if desired. Simmer for five minutes.
• Add the half-and-half, bring to a simmer and serve hot, garnished with a dash of cayenne pepper and the reserved parsley.

OYSTER CHOWDER

Steps:

• Spread bacon in a soup pan and place over medium heat. Cook until browned and its fat has rendered. Drain. Discard all but 1 tablespoon of fat and put pan back on the heat. Scrape the onion and celery into the pan and saute until softened. Drop in the potatoes. Add enough water to cover, about 3 cups. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the potatoes are tender, 15 minutes.
• Take the pan off the heat and, using a masher, lightly crush the potatoes to thicken the chowder. Add the oysters and oyster liquor and season to taste with salt and cayenne pepper. Simmer until the oysters curl, about 5 minutes.
• Pour in the milk (use 2/3 cup if you prefer it less rich), bring to a boil, then shut off the heat. Crumble in the bacon and stir in the parsley.
