Celia’s Sweet Potato
and Corn soup...
first made: 12/2/08
The ingredients are flexible. Tonight, I had fresh corn, baked sweet potato, and a fresh can of chipotle in adobo, so it was obviously go time.
I was experimenting with these ingredients when Spaulding Gray went into the river. I recently tried to read his journals, but could not continue.
Givens:
1 large baked sweet potato
1 cup corn
3 cups stock (I make a veg stock with parmesan rinds)
Adobo or green chile or jalapeno (to taste)
Optional/Variations:
Roasted red pepper strips
Parmesan rind
Miso
oregano
Add shrimp at the
end
Stir in yogurt. (or milk or cream or sour cream)
Ideas:
Start with onions.
Caramelized
Something green? Scallions?
Add lentils, butter beans, penne?
A sweet, hot, slow burn;
very delicious.
