Corn Soup with Salmon
This recipe for corn chowder offers something different: salmon is nestled atop chunky potatoes and fresh corn kernels bound by creamy half and half for an irresistibly creamy treat! If you prefer something richer, feel free to switch it out for heavy cream instead.
This recipe uses fresh summer corn, but frozen corn makes an equally enjoyable choice all year long. Both options provide restorative, refreshing and elegant meals to serve guests.
If desired, puree some cups of the soup in a blender or food processor to thicken it without overcooking the salmon. When doing so, be careful only to fill your blender about a third full and work in batches – otherwise steam may expand and cause serious burns!).

To prepare this dish, start by baking a salmon fillet flesh-side up in an oven covered in Dijon mustard and dried dill for a crunchy crust. Next, top your fillet off with seasonal veggies (zucchini and young radishes work great during summertime, while winter squashes and beets provide delicious flavour all year-round).
Kristin shares this expert cooking tip to make sure her salmon is properly cooked: To check its doneness, use a meat thermometer. Properly done salmon should have opaque pink flesh that flakes off easily with a fork.
This recipe can be prepared ahead of time; simply keep the salmon and veggies separate so the rice doesn’t absorb all of its sauce. Reheat in the microwave before topping with sesame oil and Sriracha as desired! Enjoy!
