White Corn Soup | Preserved Lemon by
•
Introducing my mouthwatering White Corn Soup with Preserved Lemon dish! 🍋✨ This creamy and flavorful soup is the perfect comfort food for any time of the year.

Made with fresh white corn kernels, this soup is bursting with natural sweetness and a hint of tanginess from the preserved lemon. 🌽🍋 The combination of flavors creates a delightful balance that will leave your taste buds dancing with joy!

To make this delightful dish, I start by sautéing onions and garlic until golden and fragrant. Then, I add the white corn kernels and cook them until tender. 🌽🔥✨ Next, I blend the mixture until smooth and creamy, adding a touch of vegetable broth for the perfect consistency.

But here comes the star of the show – the preserved lemon! 🍋🌟 I finely chop the preserved lemon and add it to the soup, giving it a unique and zesty twist. The preserved lemon adds a burst of citrusy flavor that takes this soup to a whole new level. 🌟🍋✨

Garnish your bowl of White Corn Soup with Preserved Lemon with a sprinkle of fresh herbs like cilantro or chives, and a drizzle of olive oil for an extra touch of richness.

Whether you’re looking for a comforting meal on a chilly day or a refreshing dish to enjoy during the summer, this White Corn Soup with Preserved Lemon is a must-try! 😋🌽🍋✨
