List of Ingredients




8 ears fresh corn
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, chopped fine
1 clove garlic, chopped fine
1 jalapeno pepper, chopped fine
2 Tablespoons butter or oil
1 large potato, peeled and diced fine--the same size as corn kernels
4 cups milk
2 cups cream
salt and white pepper and cayenne pepper to taste
Garnish: parsley, minced fine

Recipe



In a perfect world, you can start by firing up the coals on the grill. Then peel back the husk, strip out the silk, rub with oil (or butter--or drench with water), and twist the husk back up. Lay the corn on the grill and cook, turning every couple minutes, for 15-20 minutes. In an imperfect world, fire up the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit...and proceed as above except you don't have to turn the cobs. Let the corn cool, then cut off the cob into a bowl, scraping hard at the end to get every scrap of "milk" out. You should end up with out 4 cups of corn.

In a large soup pot, sauté the onion, garlic, and pepper in butter until the onion begins to soften (3-4 minutes). Add the corn and diced potato. Add the milk and bring to a simmer. Cook slowly until the potato is tender (15-20 minutes). Stir in the cream and season to taste.

When ready to serve, ladle into bowls and top with minced parsley.
