Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes
Servings: 4
Skill Level: Easy
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cup milk or cream
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh chives, chopped (for garnish)
- Roasted corn kernels (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic, sautéing until fragrant and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the corn kernels to the pot and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes, until the corn is tender.
- Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth and creamy. If you prefer a chunkier texture, blend partially, leaving some corn kernels whole.
- Stir in the milk or cream, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the consistency by adding more broth or milk if needed.
- Continue to cook on low heat for another 5 minutes, ensuring the soup is heated through.
- Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped chives and roasted corn kernels if desired.
- Serve hot and enjoy your delightful bowl of Sweet Corn Soup.
Helpful Tips
If you prefer a thicker consistency, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with cold water and stir it into the soup during step 5. For a vegan version, substitute butter with olive oil and use plant-based milk or cream.
Storage Instructions
Store any leftover soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove, adding a splash of broth or milk to maintain the desired consistency.
Suggested Pairings
This Sweet Corn Soup pairs wonderfully with a crisp green salad and a slice of crusty bread. For drinks, a chilled glass of white wine or homemade lemonade complements the flavors beautifully.
