Place the chicken stock in a 6-quart kettle and put it on to heat. In a
small pan, saute the onion in the butter just until clear. Stir in the
flour and cook for moment, thus making a roux. Stir the roux into the hot
soup stock, stirring until the soup thickens a bit. Add the potatoes and
bay leaf and cook until the potatoes are tender. Remove the bay leaf. Add
the half and half and the corn. Bring to a simmer and seaon to taste with
salt and pepper. Serve. (You can vary this by adding 1 pound crawfish tail
meat, cooked; peeled and cooked shrimp, or diced cooked chicken.)
