Cream Of Corn And Sweet Red Pepper Recipes

Steps:

• Slice the peppers in half lengthwise; remove stem, seeds and membrane. Place under the broiler skin side up until the skin turns black and blisters. Remove and immediately place in a small paper bag or plastic container with a tight lid. Place in the freezer for 10 minutes; this will loosen the roasted skin. Remove peppers and rub off the black skin with your fingers. Chop skinned peppers and set aside.
• Saute the butter, onions, and garlic until soft in a heavy bottomed soup pot on medium-low heat. Add the reserved red peppers, tomato paste, and chicken stock. Bring to a low boil, reduce the heat, and then simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Stir in the cornstarch mixed with a little cold water to thicken. Simmer 5 minutes. *Let the soup cool slightly, and then blend in batches in a blender, or use an immersion blender to puree. Sprinkle the roasted corn over the soup before serving and top with a dollop of Cilantro Lime Sour Cream.
• In a mixing bowl, whisk all ingredients vigorously until light and creamy.

Steps:

• In a glass pie plate stir together the corn and the oil and microwave the mixture, uncovered, at high power (100%), stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Stir in the bell pepper and microwave the mixture at high power, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Stir in the cream and salt and pepper to taste and microwave the mixture at high power for 3 minutes, or until the cream is almost evaporated.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Slice the corn kernels from the ear in a large, deep bowl with a sharp knife. Turn the knife to the dull side and scrape the cob all the way down to remove all the bits of kernel and the creamy milk.
• Add the red bell peppers, jalapenos, heavy cream, 2 teaspoons salt, a generous amount of pepper and the butter and mix well. Pour into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Bake until hot and bubbly, 45 to 55 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking pan. In a bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together buttermilk, butter, and eggs.
• Pour buttermilk mixture into flour mixture and stir until just combined (do not overmix). Fold in cheese and chiles with juices until evenly distributed. Transfer to baking pan and smooth top. Scatter pepper rounds evenly over top.
• Bake until golden brown along edges and a tester inserted in center comes out with moist crumbs, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Let cool in pan 5 minutes. Turn out onto a wire rack, then invert onto another rack, top-side up. Let cool at least 15 minutes more. Transfer to a cutting board. Cut in half lengthwise, then slice each half into small wedges. Serve warm or room temperature.

Steps:

• Melt butter in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper, onion and garlic; sauté until onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes with juices to pot; cook 2 minutes. Combine 2 cups water and chipotle chilies in blender and puree. Mix puree and cream-style corn into vegetables in pot. Bring soup to boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add frozen corn, cream and oregano; simmer 5 minutes. Garnish with cilantro, if desired.
• *Chipotle chilies canned in a spicy tomato sauce, sometimes called adobo, are available at Latin American markets, specialty foods stores and some supermarkets.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat; add red pepper and cook, stirring constantly until tender.
• Stir in corn, curry powder, salt and pepper. Cook 3 minutes, stirring often.
• Stir in whipping cream; cook, stirring constantly until thickened.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the onion and saute until translucent.
• Add the corn and the bell pepper. Cook, stirring often until the vegetables begin to soften.
• Add the onion and stir to combine. Make sure it is well incorporated. Cook for a minute, then add the evaporated milk and the chicken broth. Mix in using a wire whisk. Bing to a boil, whisking constantly, then lower the heat and cook until soup is thickened. Check seasoning and add salt and pepper to taste.
• At this point soup can be pureed in small batches in a blender or can be left as is.
• Serve hot topped with croutons, if desired.
