master recipe: awesome summer corn stock
(1 rating)
This is my go-to master recipe when I’m creating corn chowders, vegetable soups, or stews; even a good risotto. This stock is extremely easy to put together, and can be frozen for 4-6 months without harm. We’re talking primarily about a “corn” stock; however, being a master recipe, feel free to add additional veggies, herbs, and spices, and make it your own. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

How To Make master recipe: awesome summer corn stock
-
1PREP/PREPARE
-
2Chef’s Note: The base recipe calls for nothing but corn and a few herbs… that’s it. You build the stock, and make it your own by adding other wonderful Summer vegetables. In my case, I like to add some chopped carrots, and celery.
-
3Gather your ingredients.
-
4Shuck and remove the corn from the cobs.
-
5Chef’s Note: If you are not using the corn, place in Ziploc bags and store in the freezer until needed.
-
6Place the water and all the other ingredients into a large pot.
-
7Chef's Note: I'm adding some carrots and celery to the stock, because that's what I like in mine. But remember that the master recipe is only about the corn and the herbs.
-
8Allow the pot to come to the boil, and then take it down to a simmer.
-
9Simmer for 90 minutes, and strain away any scum that might rise.
-
10Remove from heat and strain, to remove the solids.
-
11Chef’s Note: If not using straight off, then refrigerate or freeze until needed.
-
12Enjoy.
-
13Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
