Yield 4 first-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

6-8 ears of fresh corn kernals (should yield about 2 cups)or 2 cups, good-quality, frozen sweet corn kernals
4 poblanos, roasted, skin and seeds removed and roughly chopped
1 large onion, diced
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon finely chopped cilantro (tablespoon reserved for garnish)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 cups vegetable stock
2 cups whole milk, half-and-half or a combination of both
1/4 cup heavy cream (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine corn kernals, milk/half-and-half and stock in a 4-quart sauce pan or soup pot. Set over medium-low heat for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. When the butter has stopped bubbling, add onions and sweat until soft and transluscent.

Press mixture through a fine-mesh sieve, discarding solids. Return pureed and strained soup to the sauce pan. Add heavy cream and warm over medium heat until soup is hot. Taste and adjust seasonings -- adding more salt or pepper, if needed Garnish each bowl with some of the reserved cilantro.
