Method

Soup Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Base

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute.

  2. 2

    Add Corn and Lemongrass

    Add fresh corn kernels and chopped lemongrass to the pot. Stir to combine and cook for another 3 minutes.

    Pour in the vegetable broth, season with salt and black pepper, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer for 15-20 minutes.

    Remove the lemongrass stalks and blend the soup until smooth using an immersion blender or a regular blender.

Chanterelle Preparation
