Chilled Corn Soup Recipe

American · Soup · 35 min total

A refreshing summer soup made with sweet corn, perfect for hot days. This creamy, dairy-free version highlights the natural sweetness of corn.

Ingredients

• 6 ears fresh corn, husked
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 3 cups vegetable broth
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, for garnish
• 1 tablespoon lime juice

Instructions

1. Cut the corn kernels from the cobs; reserve the cobs. You should have about 4 cups of kernels.
2. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
3. Add corn kernels, reserved cobs, vegetable broth, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
4. Remove the cobs and discard. Let the soup cool slightly, then puree in a blender until smooth (work in batches if needed).
5. Stir in lime juice. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until cold.
6. Serve cold, garnished with fresh basil leaves.

Tips

• For a richer soup, stir in 1/4 cup heavy cream or coconut milk before chilling.
• Can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• Adjust seasoning after chilling, as cold temperatures can dull flavors.
