- Once the Vegetable Chowder has finished cooking, mix in the Finishing Ingredients (Heavy Cream, Half & Half, Cheddar Cheese & Thyme) [if using the Corn Starch Slurry, add it in now as well]. Stir well and apply the Cover & continue to cook on Low for about 30 min to create a Creamy & Delicious Cheddar Vegetable Chowder. Add Salt & Pepper to taste if needed.
