Corn Soup With Ginger Recipes

Steps:

• Bring the first 5 ingredients to a boil.
• Add the ham and ginger and bring back to a boil.
• Mix the cornstarch wtih the cold water until smooth.
• Add 3 tablespoons of the soup to the cornstarch mixture, then very gradually add that mixture to the soup, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
• Reduce heat and rapidly stir in the beaten egg. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the leeks, celery and carrot and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have softened but not browned, about 10 minutes.
• Add the ginger, garlic, thyme, curry powder and potato. Cook, stirring, until the potato is coated in the spices, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth, 2 cups water and the sugar and bring to a boil. Add the corn, then reduce the heat to medium low and simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 25 minutes. Add the heavy cream and continue cooking until warmed through, about 5 more minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
• Working in batches, transfer the soup to a blender and puree until smooth; return to the pot. Season with salt. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a saucepan and reheat if needed. Serve with toppings.

Steps:

• Cut the corn kernels off the cobs and transfer to a bowl. Using the back of a butter knife, scrape the cobs so that all of the milky juices collect in the bowl and the cobs look completely dry, like wrung-out sponges. Set aside. (If using frozen kernels, skip this step.)
• In a large stockpot over medium heat, heat olive oil. Add shallots, garlic, ginger and chile, and sauté, stirring occasionally, until soft and fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes. Add corn kernels and juices to the pot, and sauté until the corn is softer and brighter, about 3 minutes more.
• Add potato pieces, and stir to coat, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Now, pour in the vegetable broth and coconut milk. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until the potatoes are tender all the way through.
• Use an immersion blender to roughly purée the soup, so that it's creamy with some kernels of corn, chunks of potato, and chile flecks remaining. (Alternatively, ladle about half of the soup into a blender, blend until smooth, and return to the pot.) Season with lime juice and salt, and mix to combine. Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with toppings of your choice.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Peel pumpkin and remove seeds and string. Cut pumpkin into cubes. Put three cups of the cubes in a pan and cover with one cup of the stock. Discard remaining pumpkin. Cover the pan and place in the oven until the pumpkin is tender, about 45 minutes. Puree mixture in food processor and set aside.
• In a covered pot, cook the corn with the water until tender, about 10 minutes. Grind mixture in food processor until smooth. Run through a sieve, pressing the puree through, and discard skins.
• Combine corn puree, garlic, salt, white pepper and the remaining stock in a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to low, add the pumpkin and cook 5 minutes while stirring.
• In another saucepan, cook the lime juice and ginger two minutes over medium heat. Remove and strain to remove the ginger.
• Place a bowl and a beater in the freezer for five minutes to chill. In the bowl combine the ginger-lime juice, half the lime zest and the cream. Whip until mixture has soft peaks.
• Serve the soup in individual bowls with a dollop of cream garnished with the remaining lime zest.
