cream

vegetable broth

🥗Healthier: chicken broth

💰Cheaper: water + bouillon

Chicken broth enhances flavor without extra cost.

butter

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Olive oil is healthier while still providing richness.

corn kernels

🥗Healthier: frozen corn

💰Cheaper: canned corn

Frozen corn is often fresher and more affordable.

Remove corn kernels from the cob, leaving the cobs behind.

Add the corn cobs to a pot and fill with water to make corn stock; let simmer for about an hour.

Melt butter in a pan over medium heat.

Add corn kernels to the melted butter and sauté for about 15 minutes until softened, ensuring the butter does not brown.

Prepare parmesan crisps by cutting parchment and using ring molds to shape the cheese; place in a 300-degree oven until golden-brown, about 10 minutes.

Add the sautéed corn to a large pot along with the corn stock, and let simmer to soften the corn further.

Blend the soup in batches, adding a splash of cream to each batch while blending; start on low speed and increase to high.

Pass the blended soup through a fine strainer to achieve a silky texture, discarding the pulp.

Plate the soup and garnish with parmesan crisps and optional spices.
