CHILLED CORN AND CRAB CHOWDER



Chilled Corn and Crab Chowder image

From "Jane Brody's Good Seafood Book", 1994. You can substitute surimi in place of crab if you like, but the real thing is so much better. Frozen corn may be used instead of fresh. Needless to say, This is best made in the end of summer, when all the major ingredients are in season and at the peak of their flavor. Make a meal of it with some hearty bread and a garden salad. Cooking time does not include chilling the soup.

Categories     Soup/Stew     Fruit     Herb     Vegetable     Freeze/Chill     Avocado     Corn     Summer     Chill     Cilantro     Gourmet

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

For soup
1 fresh or frozen ear of corn, shucked
4 cups plus 2 tablespoons water
1 garlic clove, smashed
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/4 cups chopped white onion
1 fresh serrano chile, stemmed and coarsely chopped (including seeds)
2 firm-ripe California avocados (1 to 1 1/4 lb total)
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1/4 cup crema or sour cream
For cilantro oil
1 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
Special Equipment
a 3/4-inch melon-ball cutter

Steps:

  • Make soup:
  • Roast corn on rack of gas burner over high heat, turning occasionally with tongs, until kernels are charred in spots, 4 to 5 minutes. (Alternatively, heat a dry well-seasoned cast-iron skillet and roast corn over moderately high heat, turning occasionally, about 10 minutes.) Transfer corn to a cutting board and, when cool enough to handle, cut kernels from cob with a sharp knife, then cut cob into thirds.
  • Bring kernels, cob pieces, 4 cups water, garlic, salt, and 1/2 cup onion to a boil in a 3-quart saucepan and boil until liquid is reduced to about 3 cups, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and cool, uncovered. Discard cob pieces.
  • Purée corn mixture along with chile and remaining 3/4 cup onion in a blender, then pour through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing hard on and then discarding solids. Return broth to cleaned blender.
  • Quarter, pit, and peel 1 avocado, then add to blender with 2 tablespoons lime juice and purée until smooth. Transfer soup to a bowl and cover surface with plastic wrap. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and chill soup at least 1 hour.
  • Prepare cilantro oil while soup chills:
  • Purée cilantro, oil, and salt in cleaned blender, scraping down sides of blender several times. Pour oil into cleaned fine-mesh sieve set over a bowl and let drain 15 minutes (do not press on solids). Discard solids.
  • Assemble soup:
  • Halve and pit remaining avocado and scoop small balls from flesh with melon-ball cutter, then toss gently with remaining tablespoon lime juice in a bowl.
  • Whisk together crema and remaining 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl until smooth.
  • Season soup with salt and ladle into 6 shallow soup bowls. Divide avocado balls among bowls, then drizzle with crema and cilantro oil.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh sweet corn. If you can't find fresh sweet corn, you can use frozen or canned sweet corn, but the flavor will not be as good.
  • To make the corn broth, you can use either chicken broth or vegetable broth. If you use chicken broth, the flavor will be richer. If you use vegetable broth, the flavor will be lighter.
  • To make the crab and avocado salad, you can use either fresh or frozen crab meat. If you use fresh crab meat, be sure to clean it properly before using it. If you use frozen crab meat, thaw it before using it.
  • To make the dressing for the crab and avocado salad, you can use either mayonnaise or Greek yogurt. If you use mayonnaise, the dressing will be richer. If you use Greek yogurt, the dressing will be lighter.
  • To garnish the chilled sweet corn broth, you can use either fresh herbs or microgreens. If you use fresh herbs, chop them finely before using them. If you use microgreens, rinse them thoroughly before using them.

Conclusion:

Chilled sweet corn broth with crab and avocado salad is a delicious and refreshing summer soup that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. The corn broth is flavorful and light, and the crab and avocado salad is creamy and rich. This soup is sure to please everyone at your table.
