CHILLED CORN SOUP WITH BASIL



Chilled Corn Soup With Basil image

No-cook, chilled blender soups are so quick to make it almost feels like cheating. This one stars sweet corn that's been tarted up with buttermilk and lime juice, spiced with garlic and scallion, and imbued with fresh herbs. While straining it isn't entirely necessary, it will give you a smoother, more elegant soup. But when it's too hot to breathe, let alone dig out the strainer, you have our permission to skip it. Serve this in espresso cups or shot glasses as an hors d'oeuvre, or in bowls as a first course.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh corn and shrimp are essential for this soup. If you can't find fresh corn, you can use frozen or canned corn, but fresh is always best.
  • Cook the corn properly: The corn should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight crunch. If you overcook the corn, it will become mushy.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp: The shrimp should be cooked just until they are opaque. If you overcook the shrimp, they will become tough.
  • Use a good quality broth: The broth is the base of this soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth. You can use chicken broth, vegetable broth, or even fish broth.
  • Season the soup to taste: This soup is pretty forgiving when it comes to seasoning, so feel free to adjust the seasonings to your liking.

Conclusion:

This chilled corn and shrimp soup is a delicious and refreshing soup that is perfect for a summer meal. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. So next time you're looking for a light and flavorful soup, give this chilled corn and shrimp soup a try.
