Ingredients
  • 4 ears fresh-picked sweet corn OR 2 1/2 cups canned corn
  • 1 1/2 cup onions, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 tablespoon butter
  • Pinch of salt
  • 6 to 8 cups delicate vegetable broth OR chicken broth
  • 2 cups arborio rice
  • 3/4 cup dry white wine
  • 2/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons flat leaf parsley

Directions
  1. NOTE: If using canned corn, skip this step.
  2. Husk and wash corn, peel away all silk and slice kernels from cobs using a sharp knife.
  3. You should have about 2 1/2 cups corn kernels.
  4. Spin about a cup of the kernels in food processor or blender until they are roughly chopped and milky.
  5. Scrape out the chopped corn and remix with whole corn kernels.
  6. Saute onion in a large soup pot with olive oil, butter and a pinch of salt until translucent and tender.
  7. Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan heat the broth to a simmer.
  8. When onion are soft add rice to the soup pot and stir with a wooden spoon for 2 minutes.
  9. Add the wine and stir until it is absorbed.
  10. Add a ladle of the simmering broth and all the corn kernels to the rice and stir, keeping it at just a simmer.
  11. Stir until broth is nearly all absorbed, then add another ladle.
  12. Continue this process for about 25 minutes more.
  13. There should be a creamy sauce around the grains of rice.
  14. The rice should be firm but not crunchy.
  15. When rice is just achieving this perfect balance, stir in the last ladle of broth along with the Parmesan cheese and parsley.
  16. It is ready to serve.

This does sound delicious my friend. Great post and a very high 5. Yummers.


Thank you, meow! I wasn't quite certain about the combo of rice and corn... we're talkin' WAY high carbs. It just sounds soooo good that I may not be able to resist. Again, thanks for your five and your support.
