3 Ingredient Corn Soup

This easy summer soup can be either creamy or crunchy, depending on whether you puree it or not.

Courses: Soup
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

6 cups 375g / 13ozCorn kernels - (abt 9 ears fresh corn)
4 1/2 cups 1066mlMilk
1/2 teaspoon 2.5mlSalt - or to taste

Recipe Instructions

Cutting the kernels off the cob: Pull the outer leaves and silky threads off each ear of corn.

Put a large piece of waxed paper on cutting board.

Hold each ear of corn, large end upright, on the cutting board and, using a sharp knife, cut the kernels off the cob from top to bottom.

Pick up the ends of the waxed paper and, using it as a sling, transfer the corn to a heavy-bottomed saucepan.

Making the soup: Add 3 cups of milk and the salt to the saucepan. Turn the heat to medium-high and stir often until the milk begins to boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low, so the milk simmers, but does not boil. Simmer for 15 minutes, stirring every few minutes.

Finishing the soup: If you want a crunchy corn soup, just add the remaining 1 1/2 cups milk, taste and add more salt if needed; heat and serve.

If you want creamy corn soup, pour the soup into a food processor and process until the corn is pureed (the kernels will be broken down into small bits, or blended completely into the milk, depending on how powerful your processor is). Pour the soup back into the saucepan and add the remaining 1 1/2 cups milk. Taste and add more salt if needed; heat and serve.
