Corn and summer go together. This soup has just enough spice to make you forget the heat outside. When I started this soup, I was thinking more along the lines of a chowder. I really wanted a healthy soup that would brighten the pallet. What defines the difference between chowder and soup is the weather; it has dairy or not. I love a good chowder, creamy soup is more comforting in the winter. This soup has loads of nutrition and flavor, a perfect combo.
