INSTRUCTIONS
Here's a delicious soup from "Everyday Cooking with Dr. Dean Ornish"
In a large saucepan, combine onion and veg broth. Bring to a simmer,
covered, over moderated heat and simmer until onion is softened, about 5
minutes.
Put 1/2 cup corn in a small bowl with chilies and pimiento. Stir to
combine.
Add remaining 2 1/2 cups corn and the milk to the onion. Bring to a boil.
Cover, adjust heat to maintain a simmer, and cook until corn is tender,
about 5 minutes. Cool slightly, then puree in blender or food processor
until smooth. Return soup to pot. Stir in corn/chile/pimiento mixture.
Reheat gently, season to taste with salt & pepper. Add a pinch of cayenne
if desired.

This is also excellent with some diced cooked potatoes added, (or in a
pinch some thawed potatoes O'Brien), which makes a nice corn chowder.
