Fresh corn soup

Overview

When I was little, every time when the corn season came, my mother would pick out some old, tender and moderate corn, clean it, then put it into a slurry, mix it with the seasonings, and steam it into a sticky and glutinous corn soup, which tasted especially salty and delicious. After leaving my hometown to spend less time with my mother, I miss my mother even more in this season.

2. 2 Remove the outer layer of the corn and remove the silk fibers, clean and wash

   

3. 3 Prepare the container and set aside all the seasonings

   

4. 4 Grind the fresh corn slowly with a cutting board to grind out the corn syrup (the one with smaller holes is best)

   

5. 5 Pour an appropriate amount of water into the ground fresh corn syrup. The ratio is 1:1. If you want it to be thicker, add a little less water. If you want it to be thinner, add a little more water. You can control it yourself.

   

6. 6 Add the diluted corn syrup into the thirteen spices, salt, chicken essence and chopped green onion and mix well

   

7. 7 Put an appropriate amount of water in the steamer to boil, put the prepared corn soup into the high heat and steam for ten minutes, then turn off the heat and simmer for two minutes.

   

8. 8 Take it out of the pot and stir evenly. Since the amount is only for one person, I only use three relatively small corns. If you have more people, you can add more corn seasoning.

   

9. 9 Stir evenly fresh corn soup
