Step-by-step recipe for a Velvety corn soup with garlic aroma

Step 1

Remove the corn from the cobs. Blend half of the kernels with warm milk, a Knorr bouillon cube, a pinch of nutmeg, and pepper.

Step 2

Brown the onion and garlic in butter. Make sure the butter doesn't burn, otherwise the dish will be unappetizing and harmful. Then add the blended corn kernels and cook for 2-3 minutes over low heat.

Step 3

Add the rest of the corn and cook for another 3 minutes. Serve the soup sprinkled with parsley.

The golden grain: a culinary history

Often called ‘America’s gold,’ corn is one of the world’s oldest cultivated grains. To maximize its natural sweetness, fresh corn on the cob benefits from cooking in lightly sweetened and salted water. Outside of peak season, high-quality canned or frozen corn works wonderfully, ensuring a consistently flavorful and aromatic soup.

Elevate your bowl: creative toppings

Enhance your soup with a variety of toppings. Fresh parsley or cilantro add an aromatic lift, while croutons or toasted sunflower seeds provide textural contrast. For those who enjoy meat, consider adding pan-seared chicken pieces, crispy bacon, or spicy chorizo. For plant-based options, roasted chickpeas, black beans, or smoked paprika-dusted mushrooms offer a hearty addition. For a playful touch, a sprinkle of popcorn adds a fun, unexpected crunch that children particularly enjoy.
