    I've been doing this recipe for years!! I peel and cut some potatoes in small to medium size squares and boil them. When there ready I add it to the soup. It is much more of a hearty soup like this!! My family loves this soup!!!

    Terrific flavor. I just made the basic soup without the chipotle or the red pepper cream. I did dice a red pepper and a jalapeno to sprinkle on top along with some chives. I liked the idea of having a little 'crunch'. Simmering with cobs made the flavor really come out. Don't bother straining. Actually made this two weeks before my dinner party froze the soup and just reheated on the stove while BBQ'n the rest of the dinner. I served this with focaccia bread ( one with rosemary & black olives and the other one with cherry tomatoes, basil and parmesan

    I did not strain the soup and topped with crumbled bacon. We loved it.

    Made this last night for dinner. Was really tasty. I had Ancho Chile Powder which I used (probably 2x as much as recipe called for and I used creme fraiche instead of the heavy cream b/c that's what I had. I also added extra salt. I used 6 ears of corn and 4 cups of veggie broth (instead of chicken.Throwing the cobs in with the soup as it cooks works great as the starch from the corn helps thicken a bit. You really do need to blend well and put through a sieve or cheesecloth or something to remove lingering corn kernel husks. It's worth the effort! All in all turned out quite well and my husband loved it. So happy to have a 2nd 'go-to' corn soup for summer.

    Made with fresh corn and served with Ina's chive biscuits. I left out the red sauce and instead cooked some thick slab bacon in the oven and topped the soup with bacon & chives. I did strain it and I think next time I won't. It was velvety and delicious but my husband wanted more substance.

    Soup was excellent , I added whole kernels of corn to the puree for fiber. Will not strain the next time I make it. Easy to prepare and lots of flavor

    I changed it up quite a bit and it was wonderful. First, I completely did away with the red sauce. Also, I didn't strain the puree and I added sauteed corn kernels and browned spicy mango sausage along with the cream (I used fat free half and half to lighten it up a bit. This, with a light salad, was a complete meal. Wonderful for a cold fall or winter evening. Fresh corn is a MUST.

    Great recipe so much flavor. I leave out the red pepper sauce and add some corn and lump crab meat to the final product to give it a little more texture and substance.

    Wonderful flavor. Smoked chipotle powder??? We've been browning New Mexico or other such powdered chile over the stove for decades, serves the same purpose. Next time I won't strain the corn, etc., takes too much time and I'd prefer the texture.
