Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 4
Serves 4-6
Ingredients
- piece small Yukon Gold, white, or russet potatoes, cut into ½-inch chunks
- piece small onion, peeled and chopped
- piece fresh corn, kernels removed
- piece medium carrots, peeled and diced
- piece stalks of celery, chopped
- cup chopped red bell pepper
- cup chopped broccoli and cauliflower stalks, outer fibrous parts removed and discarded
- piece garlic, peeled and minced
- tablespoon chopped thyme
- teaspoon white pepper
- teaspoon ground cumin
- tablespoon chopped dill
- piece salt
Instructions
- In a large pot, combine the potatoes, onion, corn kernels and cobs, carrots, celery, pepper, broccoli and cauliflower, garlic, thyme, white pepper, cumin, and 6 cups water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
- Remove the corn cobs and let cool. Remove 1 cup of the soup and puree in a blender with a tight-fitting lid, covered with a towel. (If you like a thicker soup, puree 2 cups.) Return the pureed soup to the pot and add the dill. Scrape corn cobs with back of a knife to remove the creamy corn bits from the kernel, and add the bits to the pot. Season with salt and stir well.
