On restaurant menus soups and salads are offered as a first course, but at home they stand alone. Almost all of these could be considered a full meal with a little bit of variation here and there. There are so many variations that it has been difficult to choose just a few that we enjoy around the family table. Both soups and salads offer ample opportunity to use leftovers and explore your own creativity. Dont like a particular green? Use a green you do like. For instance, as popular as kale currently is, I dont care for it raw and would never put it in a salad, but I like it cooked and in soups. If shrimp is not a favorite, try crab. Well, you get the ideaimprovisation is the key to great soups and salads.

CHARLIES CORN CHOWDER WITH SHRIMP

Cooking corncobs in milk and stock infuses this chowder with an intense corn flavor, a no-longer-secret technique that originally made this soup a namesake. If you would like to add a little heat to the soup, add some chopped chile pepper and garlic along with the leeks and bell pepper. The shrimp is not necessary, but it adds some heft and some sophistication to what is normally a home-style soup. Leftover soup can be pureed and served chilled with a swirl of heavy cream or yogurt.

Serves 6

10 ears corn, shucked

6 cups whole milk

2 cups chicken stock or canned nonfat, low-sodium chicken broth

pound slab bacon, diced

1 cup chopped well washed leeks (white and some of the light green part)

cup diced red bell pepper

3 Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into small dice

Salt and pepper

2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives, flat-leaf parsley, or cilantro

6 jumbo or 12 large cooked shrimp with tails on (see Note)

Using a chefs knife and working with one at a time, cut close to each ear of corn to slice all of the kernels from the cob. Place the kernels in a mixing bowl and set aside. Reserve the cobs.

Combine the milk and stock in a large stockpot over medium-high heat. Add the cobs and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the liquid is infused with corn flavor.

Remove the pot from the heat and, using tongs, remove the cobs and set them aside until cool enough to handle. Do not discard the broth.

When the cobs are cooled, working with one at a time and holding the cob upright in a large shallow dish, carefully scrape all of the residue from them with the edge of a knife. Discard the cobs and add the scrapings to the broth.

Fry the bacon in a large frying pan over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, for about 15 minutes or until all of the fat has rendered out and the bacon is crisp. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a double layer of paper towels to drain.

Pour off most of the fat from the frying pan, leaving about 1 tablespoon. Return the pan to medium heat and, when hot, add the leeks and bell pepper. Fry, stirring frequently, for about 7 minutes or until the vegetables have softened. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the vegetables to a double layer of paper towels to drain.

When the vegetables are well-drained of fat, transfer them to the broth. Place the pot over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Add the potatoes and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.

Add the reserved corn kernels and again bring to a simmer. Simmer for about 6 minutes or just until the corn is barely cooked.

Remove about 2 cups of the chowder from the pot and place in a blender or food processor fitted with the metal blade. Process to a thick puree. Pour the puree back into the chowder and simmer for another 5 minutes.

Remove the chowder from the heat and stir in the reserved bacon along with the herb of choice. Taste and, if necessary, adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.

Serve piping hot in large shallow soup bowls with 1 jumbo shrimp or 2 large shrimp in the center of each bowl.

Note: You can also add an additional pound chopped raw shrimp to the soup after you have pureed the 2 cups. The 5-minute reheat will cook the shrimp perfectly.

THE BEST POTATO SOUP The combination of potatoes leeks and bacon has always - photo 2
THE BEST POTATO SOUP

The combination of potatoes, leeks, and bacon has always been at the top of my flavor chartboth growing up in upstate New York and as a chef trained in the French style. My mom called it warm-up potato soup, which is exactly what it did on a cold, snowy winters day. As a young chef in France I learned about vichyssoise, a more refined version of my moms warm-up that can also be served chilled. Either wayhot or coldpotatoes and leeks combined with a hint of smoky bacon is, to me, a terrifically satisfying dish.

Serves 6

pound slab bacon, diced

3 tablespoons unsalted butter

6 leeks (white part only), well washed and sliced crosswise into chunks

2 pounds all-purpose potatoes, peeled and cubed

5 cups chicken stock or canned nonfat, low-sodium chicken broth

3 cups half-and-half

Salt and pepper

1 cup heavy cream

2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill or flat-leaf parsley

Fry the bacon in a frying pan over low heat, stirring frequently, for about 15 minutes or until the fat has rendered out and the bacon is brown and crisp. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a double layer of paper towels to drain.

Place the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. When melted, add the leeks and cook, stirring frequently, for about 8 minutes or until the leeks are very soft and fragrant but have not colored.
