In fact, Im yet to come across a creamy soup I dont love.
Hmmmm…..that statement sounds somewhat awfully familiar.
Ive written that here before.
Oh, thats right.
I say the same thing about cheese.
Umm… and potatoes.
This website would be a very different place indeed if I also said the same thing about salads.
Heres my tip: Use fresh corn and use the corn cobs to make a simple extra-corny broth.
OH and cook the bacon first and use the bacon drippings to make the soup base (i.e.
sauteing onion and garlic then making a roux that thickens the soup).
Infusing the broth with the corn cobs is one such technique.
Now, I must confess something.
Well, 2 things.
The soup you see in the photos is cleaner than what you will see in the video.
I usually make this with sprigs of thyme to infuse the broth.

Having made that decision, I proceeded with the recipe video.
I fished it out as soon as I stopped recording!!!
These are not deal breakers though.
