Soup Base

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté the Base

    In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

  2. 2

    Add Corn and Broth

    Add the fresh corn kernels and continue to sauté for another 5 minutes. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Blend the Soup

    Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until smooth.

  4. 4

    Finish with Cream

    Stir in the heavy cream, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Heat the bisque gently until warmed through, but do not boil.

  5. 5

    Prepare Toppings

    In a small bowl, mix the crumbled cotija cheese and chopped cilantro.
