Cantonese Creamed Corn Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Carefully pat the tofu dry with a clean kitchen towel, and cut each block into 8 slices.
• Place half the corn kernels into a blender or food processor, and blitz until creamy but still chunky.
• Heat a medium saucepan or deep skillet over medium-high. When hot, add 1 tablespoon oil. Add the ginger, garlic and scallions, and cook for 20 seconds until aromatic. (They shouldn't brown too much.) Add the remaining corn kernels, along with the blitzed corn and vegetable stock, season well with salt and white pepper, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes to bring the mixture to a boil. Stirring constantly, slowly add the cornstarch slurry, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the mixture is slightly thickened.
• Divide rice among bowls. For each serving, lay 4 slices of silken tofu on top of the rice and top with a few spoonfuls of the creamed corn. Finish with scallions, cilantro and drizzle with sesame or chile oil.

Steps:

• Combine chicken broth, 1 cup water, 1/3 cup rice wine, and the ginger in large saucepan. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered 20 minutes.
• Remove ginger from broth and stir in remaining 3 T. rice wine, the corn and salt. Heat to boiling, then reduce heat to low.
• Dissolve cornstarch in remaining 1/4 cup water and gradually stir into soup. Heat, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and pour egg whites in thin stream around edge. Stir once and add sesame oil.
• Sprinkle ham over soup in bowls.

Steps:

• In a saucepan combine the creamed corn and broth; bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
• In a small bowl or cup whisk the cornstarch and water; add to the simmering corn soup and continue to cook for about 2 minutes or until thickened.
• Gradually add the beaten eggs while stirring or whisking the soup constantly.
• Add in the corn niblets (if using) and heat though.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Serve and enjoy!
