I guess the easiest way to enjoy a bowl of corn soup is to purchase a can of corn soup from your nearby supermarket and cooked it about 10 mins before serving it. Easy right?But the soup contains preservatives that are harmful to us…  So why not try to make some home-made corn soup that are nutritious and delicious too. The most important thing to take note is that the quality of the corn would directly affect the taste of the soup. So it is important to buy good quality corn for this soup. Do enjoy the recipe

Mmm. Yummy~ This is one of the many soups which I love since I was a little boy. Whenever my mum prepared this soup, she will definitely cook one large pot it because she could count on me to finish at least two large bowls!Although this recipe is meant for 7 persons, only 4 of us are enjoying it, and as usual there is no leftover except for the bone.
