Author’s Notes
From Summer Corn to Soup Bowls
My dad made boiled, buttered corn on the cob almost every night in the summer. It was his favorite side dish, and we all loved it too. These days, I usually grill my corn, but there’s still something so nostalgic about boiled corn. And honestly, corn in general!
Anytime I can add corn to a recipe, I do—I absolutely love it! Over the years, I’ve shared a couple of different corn soups, and this corn chowder has been a favorite with many of you.
Today I’m sharing another corn soup, but this one is very different from the others. It has an Asian-inspired flair with soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, and a whisked egg that thickens the broth and adds rich flavor.
Best part? It’s one of the quickest soups on my site. You can have it ready in 20 minutes or less; the reliable fast lunch if you ask me!

| Soy sauce, toasted sesame oil | Adds depth and a nutty finish; drizzle extra sesame oil on top before serving. |
| Ginger paste, garlic paste | Paste blends smoothly into the broth and makes things quick & straightforward! |
| Egg, cornstarch slurry | Whisk the egg in slowly for ribbons; the cornstarch thickens the soup slightly. |
