Sweat the onions and corn in butter over low heat with lid on. After onions are translucent, add chicken stock. Bring to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Puree in a blender and put through a fine sieve. Heat and add 1 cup of cream at the last minute before serving.
Very tasty - It is a keeper! I modified the recipe by replacing fresh corn with canned corn and heavy cream with half and half. I used what I had in my fridge and it came out just fine. I added one potatoe to make it creamier. I sprinkled some green onion on top for garnish.
I have made many corn soups, hot and cold. This recipe was like runny baby food. I prefer the some texture of the main ingredient, corn. I would never, never strain a corn, leek, or any other veg. soup unless I wanted a puree. Enough said.
I recently made this recipe (X 3 for a large group and it was a huge hit. One thing I did which I believe added more sweat corn flavor, was to boil several corn cobs (after the corn was cut off in the chicken stock for about an hour. Try it!!
