- 1 onion, chopped
- cup butter
- 1 tablespoon dried parsley
- cup all-purpose flour
- 2 quarts half-and-half cream
- 2 (15.25 ounce) cans whole kernel corn
- Salt and ground black pepper to taste
Directions
- In a large pot, saut the chopped onion in butter with dried parsley flakes over medium heat. Continue cooking for about 8 minutes, until the onion becomes tender and translucent.
- Once the onion is tender, stir in the flour. The mixture will be slightly lumpy, but that's okay. Keep stirring to evenly combine.
- Slowly pour in the half-and-half cream, stirring constantly until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy. Make sure there are no lumps.
- Add the canned whole kernel corn to the pot. Stir everything together, and cook for another 5 minutes, until the soup slightly thickens.
- Season with salt and black pepper to taste, adjusting the seasoning as needed.
- Serve the soup hot by ladling it into bowls. For an extra touch, garnish with freshly popped corn on top.
