6 small Red Bliss potatoes, scrubbed

4 small white onions, peeled and quartered
2 ears corn, shucked and silk removed

1
Bring a large kettle of water to a boil. If you're making enough for 8 people, about 5 quarts of water will work.

Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 10 minutes.
4
Add the potatoes to the pot, raise the heat, and return to a boil.
5
Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the potatoes are not quite trender, about 10 minutes.
6
Add the sausage and onions and return the pot to a boil.
7
When the potatoes are almost fork-tender, add the corn and return to a boil.
8
Add the shrimp and cook just 2 minutes until the shrimp turn pink.
9
Ladle 1/2 cup of the broth per person into a heatproof pitcher and drain the rest through a large colander, discarding the liquid and the bay leaves.
10
Pour the reserved broth into a few bowls to set on the table for dipping.
11
Arrange the shrimp, sausages, and vegetables on a large platter.
