CORN SOUP WITH HERBS



Corn Soup with Herbs image

Aww, shucks: It's a smooth corn soup filled with sweet corn kernels and topped with plenty of fresh herbs.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 ears corn, shucked
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons sugar
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 small shallot, thinly sliced
1/2 jalapeno, seeded and chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 sprigs fresh thyme
1 bay leaf
6 tablespoons mixed chopped fresh herbs, such as chives, basil and parsley
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling

Steps:

  • Cut the kernels off 6 ears of the corn, transfer to a medium bowl and then, working over the bowl, run the back of a chef?s knife down the cobs to extract all the juices and pulp from the corn.
  • Melt the butter in a large wide pot or medium Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the sugar, garlic, shallot, jalapeno, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally until the vegetables are softened, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the corn kernels and juices and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the corn is softened and well coated, about 5 minutes more. Add the thyme sprigs, bay leaf and 6 cups water. Bring the soup to a boil, reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and continue to cook, stirring occasionally until slightly thickened, about 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cut the kernels off the remaining 2 ears of corn and set aside. Discard the thyme and bay leaf from the soup and then carefully puree in batches in a blender (or in the pot with an immersion blender) until creamy, taking care not to fill the blender more than half full per batch.
  • Return the soup to the pot, add the reserved corn kernels and simmer over medium heat until the corn is tender, about 5 minutes. Adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper. Divide the soup among 4 bowls and top with the mixed herbs and a drizzle of olive oil.

CREAMY CORN SOUP WITH BASIL



Creamy Corn Soup With Basil image

This soup is divine when made with freshly picked sweet summer corn. There is no cream or dairy: The creaminess comes from thoroughly whizzing the corn. For the creamiest texture, pass the puréed soup through a fine-mesh sieve.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     soups and stews, appetizer, main course

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
2 large white or yellow onions, chopped (about 4 cups)
Kosher salt (Diamond Crystal) and black pepper
6 large garlic cloves, peeled and left whole
4 cups corn kernels (from about 8 ears)
2 cups sliced squash blossoms (from about 18 blossoms, optional)
Handful of fresh basil leaves, for serving

Steps:

  • Put 3 tablespoons olive oil in a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven set over medium-high heat. When the oil starts to look wavy, add the onions and season well with salt and pepper.
  • Let onions cook, stirring, until they begin to soften, about 4 to 5 minutes, then turn heat to medium and continue cooking until onions are quite soft, about 15 minutes more.
  • Add the garlic and corn kernels, and stir to combine. Add 6 cups water and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to a gentle simmer. Taste the resulting broth and adjust salt to taste. (It should be well seasoned.) Cook for about another 10 to 15 minutes, until the kernels are tender. Stir in squash blossoms, if using, and turn off heat.
  • Working in batches, purée the soup in a blender. Pass the puréed soup through a fine-mesh strainer and into a large bowl, pushing down to press all the liquid out. Discard the fibrous debris left behind.
  • Check consistency and seasoning, and adjust as needed. (Add a bit more water if the soup seems too thick.) The soup can be made up to a few hours ahead up to this point, and tastes best the day it's made. Reheat, if needed, before serving.
  • To serve, ladle into individual bowls. Drizzle about a teaspoon of olive oil over each serving. Quickly chop the basil, and sprinkle over to finish.

SPICY CORN AND COCONUT SOUP



Spicy Corn and Coconut Soup image

A good corn soup is creamy and naturally sweet; an even better corn soup is spicy, refreshing and addictive. In this recipe, it's the combination of shallots, garlic, ginger, chiles and coconut milk, rather than heavy cream or butter, that makes the soup at once cooling and rich. It's a dinner in a bowl (and a vegan one at that), but it would surely welcome a side of steamed rice or salad of leafy greens. To serve, add garnishes that are any combination of spicy (extra fresh chile or store-bought chile oil), crunchy (toasted coconut, chopped peanuts or cashews, fried shallots) or fresh (torn cilantro, chopped scallions), and it'll be even more dynamic.

Categories     dinner, lunch, weekday, weeknight, soups and stews, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

5 ears yellow or bicolor corn (or 5 cups frozen corn kernels)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 shallots, thinly sliced into rings
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 (1-inch) piece ginger, peeled and minced
1 serrano chile (or other chile), minced
2 small red potatoes (6 to 8 ounces total), cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 1/2 cups vegetable broth (or 2 1/2 cups of hot water whisked with 1 1/2 teaspoons jarred bouillon)
1 (15-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
1 tablespoon lime juice (from 1/2 lime)
Kosher salt, to season
Torn cilantro leaves, toasted coconut flakes, chopped roasted peanuts, crispy fried shallots, lime wedges and more sliced Serrano chiles, to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Cut the corn kernels off the cobs and transfer to a bowl. Using the back of a butter knife, scrape the cobs so that all of the milky juices collect in the bowl and the cobs look completely dry, like wrung-out sponges. Set aside. (If using frozen kernels, skip this step.)
  • In a large stockpot over medium heat, heat olive oil. Add shallots, garlic, ginger and chile, and sauté, stirring occasionally, until soft and fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes. Add corn kernels and juices to the pot, and sauté until the corn is softer and brighter, about 3 minutes more.
  • Add potato pieces, and stir to coat, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Now, pour in the vegetable broth and coconut milk. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until the potatoes are tender all the way through.
  • Use an immersion blender to roughly purée the soup, so that it's creamy with some kernels of corn, chunks of potato, and chile flecks remaining. (Alternatively, ladle about half of the soup into a blender, blend until smooth, and return to the pot.) Season with lime juice and salt, and mix to combine. Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with toppings of your choice.

HERBED CREAM OF CORN SOUP



Herbed Cream of Corn Soup image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Dairy     Herb     Quick & Easy     Corn     Summer     Chill     Gourmet

Yield Makes about 4 cups, serving 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 cups cooked fresh corn kernels or two 10-ounce packages frozen, thawed
1 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons finely chopped white part of scallion
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 cup half-and-half
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

  • In a blender blend the corn, the broth, the scallion, and the thyme until the mixture is smooth. Strain the mixture through a sieve set over a bowl, pressing hard on the solids, discard the solids, and stir in the half-and-half and the parsley. Season the soup with salt and pepper and chill it, covered, for 1 hour, or until it is cold.

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn: Fresh corn on the cob is best for this soup, but you can also use frozen or canned corn. If using frozen corn, thaw it completely before using.
  • Roast the corn: Roasting the corn adds a delicious smoky flavor to the soup. You can roast the corn in the oven or on the grill.
  • Use a variety of herbs: The herbs in this soup add a lot of flavor. Feel free to use your favorite herbs or a combination of herbs.
  • Don't overcook the soup: The soup should be simmered gently for just a few minutes, until the corn is tender and the soup is heated through. Overcooking the soup will make it thick and pasty.
  • Serve the soup with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for corn soup include grated cheese, crumbled bacon, diced avocado, and sour cream.

Conclusion:

This herbed cream of corn soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. The soup is creamy and flavorful, with a hint of sweetness from the corn. The herbs add a lot of flavor to the soup, and the roasted corn adds a smoky flavor. This soup is also very versatile, and you can easily customize it to your own taste.
