Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

8 large red bell peppers
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup chopped onion
2 cloves minced garlic
1/4 cup tomato paste
6 cups chicken stock
2 cups heavy cream
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 to 2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup sweet corn kernels, lightly roasted
Cilantro Lime Sour Cream, recipe follows
1 cup sour cream
1/2 lime, juiced
1 teaspoon finely minced fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Slice the peppers in half lengthwise; remove stem, seeds and membrane. Place under the broiler skin side up until the skin turns black and blisters. Remove and immediately place in a small paper bag or plastic container with a tight lid. Place in the freezer for 10 minutes; this will loosen the roasted skin. Remove peppers and rub off the black skin with your fingers. Chop skinned peppers and set aside.
  • Saute the butter, onions, and garlic until soft in a heavy bottomed soup pot on medium-low heat. Add the reserved red peppers, tomato paste, and chicken stock. Bring to a low boil, reduce the heat, and then simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Stir in the cornstarch mixed with a little cold water to thicken. Simmer 5 minutes. *Let the soup cool slightly, and then blend in batches in a blender, or use an immersion blender to puree. Sprinkle the roasted corn over the soup before serving and top with a dollop of Cilantro Lime Sour Cream.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk all ingredients vigorously until light and creamy.

CORN SOUP WITH RED PEPPER SWIRL



Corn Soup With Red Pepper Swirl image

Late summer is when corn and ripe peppers collide in the market. A well-seasoned purée of roasted red pepper swirled into this luscious soup makes a dramatic contrast to the corn's sweetness.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     soups and stews, vegetables, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 large red bell pepper
1 or 2 fresh Fresno chiles, seeds removed, chopped
1 teaspoon pimentón (smoked paprika) or 1/4 teaspoon chipotle chile
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large onion, diced
3 cups corn kernels (from 4 large ears) or 3 cups frozen corn kernels
6 garlic cloves
4 cups water, corn-cob broth (see Tip) or chicken broth
Lime wedges, for garnish

Steps:

  • Place bell pepper over an open flame or under broiler and roast, turning frequently with tongs, until blackened and blistered all over, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature. Cut in half vertically. With a paring knife, remove seeds from each half, then turn over and scrape away the blackened skin. Do not rinse; a little remaining char is fine.
  • Transfer roasted pepper to a blender or food processor and add Fresno chiles, pimentón, olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Blend to a smooth thick purée. Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, melt butter in a heavy-bottomed soup pot over medium-high heat. Add onions and corn kernels. Season well with salt and pepper and reduce heat to medium. Cooking, stirring, until onions are softened and beginning to color, 7 to 8 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  • Add 3 cups water or broth and salt to taste. Simmer for 15 minutes, until corn is well cooked. Transfer to a blender and whiz to a smooth purée. Thin with water or broth to the consistency of heavy cream.
  • Pass soup through a fine mesh strainer, pressing with the back of a large spoon or ladle to extract every drop of liquid. (This step is important to guarantee a velvety texture.) Discard any fibrous remains. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  • To serve, reheat and ladle into shallow soup bowls. Swirl about 2 tablespoons pepper purée into the center of each bowl. Pass lime wedges at the table.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, in-season corn and yellow peppers for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have fresh corn, you can use frozen corn kernels.
  • Be sure to cook the corn and peppers until they are soft before adding them to the soup.
  • You can add other vegetables to the soup, such as diced tomatoes, zucchini, or squash.
  • Season the soup to taste with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices.
  • Serve the soup hot with a side of crusty bread or crackers.

Conclusion:

Corn and yellow pepper soup is a delicious and nutritious way to enjoy fresh summer produce. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it spicy, creamy, or somewhere in between, this soup is sure to please everyone at the table.
