Roasted Corn And Green Chili Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Remove the kernels from the ears of corn and set aside.
• Place the 4 stripped corn cobs in 6 cups water in a large pot. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes, then remove.
• In a skillet, heat a few glugs of olive oil. Add the chopped scallions and green chiles and sauté. Add 1/4 cup cornmeal and cook, stirring, about 5 minutes.
• Add the scallion-and-chili mixture to broth along with the corn kernels and 2 chopped potatoes. Cook until soft. Garnish with crema or sour cream, if you'd like, and the sliced scallions.

Steps:

• Remove the claws from the lobsters. Carefully crack the claws and try to remove the meat in 1 piece and set aside for garnish. Remove the tail meat and chop into 1-inch chunks and set aside in the refrigerator. Reserve the shells.
• Melt butter in a medium stockpot over medium heat; add the onions and garlic and cook until soft. Increase heat to high, add the wine, lobster shells, and corn cobs and cook until completely reduced. Add 4 cups of the lobster stock and bring to a boil. Add 2 cups of the corn and let cook for 15 minutes. Remove the lobster shells and corn cobs.
• Transfer the soup to a food processor and process until smooth. Strain into a clean saucepan and bring to a simmer. Stir in the lobster meat, remaining 1 cup of roasted corn kernels and green chiles and cook for 5 minutes.
• Place heavy cream in a medium saucepan and reduce by half. Add the reduced cream to the chowder and stir until combined, if the chowder appears too thick, add some of the remaining lobster stock to thinly slightly. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the cilantro. Ladle into bowls and top with a few tablespoons of relish, a lobster claw and fresh cilantro leaves.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Remove corn from water, place on baking sheets and roast in the oven until tender and slightly charred, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool slightly, remove husks and kernels and place kernels in a bowl.
• Add the remaining ingredients and stir until combined. Let relish sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

Steps:

• Set a 6-quart multi-cooker to the saute setting and add the butter. Add the bacon, onions and oregano and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions start to become translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the green chiles, corn and garlic and cook for an additional minute. Add 3 cups of the chicken stock.
• In a separate bowl, whisk the cornstarch into the remaining 1/3 cup chicken stock. Add to the multi-cooker and stir well. Cover and position the vent to the sealing setting. Set the multi-cooker to pressure-cook on high for 5 minutes. When the time is up, carefully quick release the steam (it takes about 3 minutes), then remove the lid.
• Mix in the heavy cream. Stir in the cheeses until they have melted completely. Check the seasoning; add salt and pepper as needed. Ladle into bowls and serve immediately garnished with the green onions.

Steps:

• Using tongs, hold chile directly over flame of gas burner, turning frequently, until entire surface is blistered. (Alternatively, roast chile under broiler.) Place roasted chile in medium bowl. Cover with plate and let steam 20 minutes. (Alternatively, place chile in small paper bag. Close securely and let steam.) When cool enough to handle, peel off charred skin and discard. Remove and discard seeds. Finely chop chile flesh; set aside.
• Using a sharp knife, cut corn off cobs; reserve cobs. Heat small cast-iron or other heavy skillet over medium heat. Add corn and cook, stirring occasionally, until well browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Set aside.
• Break reserved cobs in half. In large saucepan, combine broth and cobs. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 15 minutes. Discard cobs.
• In food processor or blender, combine reserved corn kernels and broth and process, in batches if necessary, until very smooth. Strain through fine-mesh sieve back into saucepan, using a rubber spatula to press mixture through mesh. Stir in tofu, reserved chopped chile, and salt and pepper to taste. Rewarm over low heat, stirring occasionally.
• Ladle soup into bowls and garnish each serving with cilantro. Serve with lime wedges if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Keeping husks on corn, place corn on heavy rimmed baking sheet. Roast until corn is fragrant and husks brown, about 30 minutes. Let cool. Remove husks from corn. Cut off corn kernels and set aside.
• Char chili over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. Enclose in paper bag and let stand 10 minutes. Peel, seed and quarter chili.
• Combine 3 1/2 cups water, broth and potato in large pot. Cover partially and simmer over medium heat until potato is tender, about 20 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer potato to processor; reserve cooking liquid. Add corn, chili and chopped cilantro to processor. Puree until mixture is as smooth as possible, gradually adding most of reserved cooking liquid through feed tube. Strain corn puree through sieve into large saucepan, pressing on solids. Mix in remaining cooking liquid and cream. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Bring soup to simmer. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Ladle soup into bowls. Garnish with cilantro sprigs and then serve immediately.

Steps:

• Over medium heat, heat a large soup pot. Add olive oil and saute onions in turmeric. Cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.

• Add half-and-half. Simmer another 5 minutes.
• Add the remainder of the broth and simmer 20 minutes.
• Season to taste and add cheese. Stir to combine and serve.
