Comments
At the break in preparation (****) you have the option of cooling your soup base and pureeing the mixture to make a thicker soup before adding the rest of the ingredients. I like it without the pureeing step, it is much quicker (no need to wait for soup to cool) and I like the chunks of corn too.

Serve this great soup with a salad and some nice crusty bread!
