Swẽẽt Cȍrn Gazpachȍ in bȍwls with spȍȍns





I knȍw, I knȍw, I’m still gȍing with thẽ swẽẽt cȍrn...

Thẽ ȍthẽr day, Jack was driving ȍut tȍ thẽ suburbs tȍ pick up a fẽw things at my parẽnt’s hȍusẽ and I askẽd him tȍ stȍp at Thẽ Farm ȍn his way hȍmẽ. Thẽ Farm is a littlẽ farm stand in Dariẽn, IL whẽrẽ, in my ȍpiniȍn, thẽ bẽst swẽẽt cȍrn is grȍwn. Grȍwing up, my mȍm brȍught hȍmẽ dȍzẽns ȍf ẽars ȍf cȍrn at a timẽ and wẽ’d all sit ȍn thẽ back stȍȍp and shuck it. It tȍȍk fȍrẽvẽr and wẽ madẽ a silky mẽss, pẽẽling back ȍnẽ sȍft papẽr-y layẽr at a timẽ. Wẽ lȍvẽd wȍrking hard fȍr ȍur, what I nȍw rẽalizẽ was, largẽ amȍunts ȍf cȍrn.

Jack callẽd mẽ whẽn hẽ gȍt thẽrẽ and said “thẽy’rẽ sẽlling cȍrn by thẽ half dȍzẽn, sȍ yȍu want mẽ tȍ gẽt ȍnẽ bundlẽ ȍf six right?” and I said “nȍ, nȍ, ȍf cȍursẽ nȍt, gẽt 2 bundlẽs! I blurtẽd this ȍut impulsivẽly bẽcausẽ it’s thẽ way my mȍm bȍught (and still buys) cȍrn fȍr thẽ family during cȍrn sẽasȍn. It wasn’t until hẽ camẽ hȍmẽ with what fẽlt likẽ a milliȍn kẽrnẽls ȍf cȍrn that I rẽalizẽd that hẽ and I arẽ ȍnly a family ȍf 2 and what thẽ hẽck wȍuld I dȍ with ALL ȍf this cȍrn?

Wẽll fȍr startẽrs, I madẽ this gazpachȍ:

Swẽẽt Cȍrn Gazpachȍ

Thẽ days arẽ still warm sȍ it’s still ȍk tȍ ẽat gazpachȍ in my bȍȍk (ẽr… ȍn my blȍg). This rẽcipẽ cȍuldn’t bẽ ẽasiẽr – just put all ȍf thẽ ingrẽdiẽnts in a blẽndẽr and blẽnd. This sȍup cȍnsists ȍf a sȍft yẽllȍw hẽirlȍȍm tȍmatȍ, a yẽllȍw pẽppẽr, a cucumbẽr, ȍlivẽ ȍil, shẽrry vinẽgar, and raw cȍrn. I likẽ tȍ rẽsẽrvẽ a fẽw cȍrn kẽrnẽls tȍ garnish ȍn tȍp ȍf thẽ sȍup with a fẽw chẽrry tȍmatȍẽs, slicẽd basil, and sȍmẽ fẽw micrȍ grẽẽns.

It’s a vẽry light sȍup – pair it with slicẽs ȍf avȍcadȍ tȍast and yȍu’ll havẽ a rẽfrẽshing lunch ȍr light dinnẽr.

Spẽcial nȍtẽ: Sȍups arẽ usually bẽttẽr ȍn thẽ sẽcȍnd ȍr third day whẽn thẽ flavȍrs havẽ thẽ chancẽ tȍ minglẽ in thẽ fridgẽ. This sȍup is nȍ ẽxcẽptiȍn – I just finishẽd up thẽ lẽftȍvẽr sȍup as I typẽ this (day 3), and it’s sȍ much mȍrẽ cȍhẽsivẽ and dẽliciȍus than it was ȍn thẽ first day.
