This recipe was one of my Grandmother's most requested soups. She was an amazing cook when it came to soups and baked goods. I am submitting her original recipe and can only hope that I haven't misread her instructions (she had the worst handwriting!). I use fresh corn shaved from the ear for this recipe but it does take much longer and my husband cannot tell the difference.

How To Make corn soup

  • 1
    Rub corn through a sieve. Discard pulp and put corn mush aside.
  • 2
    Saute onions in butter until soft and yellow (I chop my onions finely rather than leave them sliced)
  • 3
    Add in flour and milk gradually stirring until mixture boils. Stir in the sieved corn and parsley.
  • 4
    Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • 5
    Simmer for 20 minutes. Check often to be sure soup doesn't get too thick. If it does you can add more milk.
  • 6
    Ladle into bowls and garnish with paprika and chives.
