This corn chowder is creamy, savory, and lightly sweet, with tender potatoes and bursts of juicy corn in every spoonful. Crispy bacon and fresh chives on top add smoky crunch and brightness, making it cozy and satisfying without being complicated.

Humita en Chala is a tender steamed parcel of fresh corn, onion, and basil wrapped in corn husks until fragrant and delicately set. This vegan version is sweet from the corn, savory from the onion and cumin, and deeply aromatic with basil, making it both rustic and elegant.
