My mom used to cut the corn off the cob to make this soup, but I use canned cream-style corn. This is a very good dish to come home to on a chilly day.

This soup was a bit too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup turned out grainy. I'm not sure if I cooked it too long or if I didn't blend it well enough.

This soup was a bit too thick for my taste. I would recommend adding more broth or water to thin it out.

I was disappointed with this soup. It was bland and lacked flavor. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't turn out well.

This soup was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I will definitely be making it again, but I will use less cayenne pepper next time.

This soup was easy to make and tasted great! I used frozen shrimp and it turned out just as well as if I had used fresh shrimp.
