Directions
01
For soup, cut kernels off cobs. Reserve 1 cup kernels (approx. 1 ear). Add remaining kernels to blender along with water, zucchini, green onion, oil, miso, vinegar, turmeric and black pepper. Puree until smooth. Stir in reserved corn kernels, leaving a few to garnish (do not puree). Transfer to large bowl and chill until ready to serve.
02
For swirl, in food processor or blender, puree blueberries and chipotle with water to thin until a jam-like consistency. Ladle soup into bowls and swirl on blueberry mixture. Sprinkle with additional corn kernels. Serve.
