Recipe Directions

  • 1. Remove corn husks from cob. Slice the kernels off the cob by holding the corn cob vertically and carefully slicing down toward your cutting board.
  • 2. Add all ingredients (except the second amount of corn) into your blender. Blend on high until very smooth and well-blended. Blend for longer than you would blend a smoothie, because you want the soup to be warm when coming out of the blender.
  • 3. Pour chowder into a bowl. Add remaining corn and stir with a spoon. Garnish with pepper and chopped cilantro (optional).
  • 4. Enjoy chowder immediately, while still warm from the blender.

The Rawtarian's Thoughts

By The Rawtarian

Try this satisfying vegan chowder when you want the creamy, comforting feeling of a bowl of thick warm soup.

If using fresh corn for this recipe, you’ll need at least three or four corn cobs on hand. (If you can’t get fresh corn, use well-drained, unsweetened canned corn.  (If using canned corn, rinse and drain corn kernels. Pat dry with a clean tea towel.) But it’s fresher and sweeter to use fresh, uncooked corn sliced straight off the cob.

Flavor tip: I normally add fresh garlic to my raw soup recipes and you may be tempted to do the same. However, avoid adding garlic because the flavors don’t go well with the sweetness of the corn.

This recipe makes enough for one large bowl for one person or two small appetizer cups.

Sorry about that Erica, I am lazy a little too often. Julie is right, it's cilantro. I have now edited the recipe to be more clear :)

I made this a few minutes ago and it's oh so delicious! This is a true comfort food. I made one change that is sub half of the water with almond milk for extra creaminess!

TIP to make life easier. I grew up in Iowa where we put up a lot of sweet corn. Anytime you need to cut corn off the cob use your angel food cake pan. Put the ear of corn in the small opening and slice down. The pan catches the kernels and the creamy juices and your knife never hits a dulling surface.

I just made this recipe today and it was delicious the amounts required were perfect ;) I would suggest in recipe writing that you mention unsalted or salted nuts, as not everyone would know that and if they made this with salted nuts it might come out too salty.

Hi, Laura! my vegetable guy sent me a ton of young corn today. I might as well use them for this recipe. I'll let you know how it goes. :)

Is there a substitute for cashews in your soup recipes ? Other than using avocado of course! Or do you have other soup recipes that taste delicious but don't use these two ingredients?

Hi Michelle, in soups the purpose of using cashews or avocados is to give the soup a creamy texture. Those are the two main ways that I make savory raw soups that are creamy. Does anyone have any other suggestions for ways to make a soup creamy without those two additions?

I simply blend the fresh or frozen (thawed under warm water) corn with water in the vitamix, add some fresh garlic, salt & pepper to taste, let it run until warm but still raw and add some left over corn to it. It is not as thick as with cashew or avocado, but definitely sweet & creamy. If you like it sweeter, add a dash of agave nectar or maple syrup or 2 or 3 dates or some raisins. Rosemary, thyme or some marjoram will give it a more Mediterranean taste.
