Wisconsin Harmony Valley Farms Sweet Corn Soup

Prep Time: approximately 30 minutes
Servings: approximately 6

Ingredients

  • 9 ears sweet corn
  • 2 tbsp margarine
  • 2 onions, sliced
  • 2 tsp granulated sugar
  • ¼ tsp white pepper
  • Dried red pepper flakes to taste
  • 2 ½ cups Coffee Rich®
  • 2 cups cooking cream
  • 4 tsp chopped fresh chives or scallion tops

Directions

  1. Using a sharp knife cut the kernels from the cobs. With a table knife, scrape the "milk" from the cobs into a bowl.
  2. Lightly sauté the onions, salt, white pepper and red pepper flakes in the margarine for approximately 3 minutes. Reduce heat, cover, and cook until the onions are soft, approximately 8 minutes.
  3. Take cover off of the pan and continue cooking until all liquid has evaporated and the onions are beginning to turn golden, about 10 minutes.
  4. Add the corn kernels, Coffee Rich® and cooking cream and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer for approximately 20 minutes.
  5. Transfer to a food processor, puree and strain.
  6. Reheat before serving and garnish with the chives.
  7. Note: Summer Squash can be used in the place of corn.
