Ingredients
- 5 corn cobs
- 30cl whole milk
- 15cl heavy cream
- 30cl chicken bouillon
- Salt & pepper
- 2 marrowbones
- 1 dab of butter
Recipe
Step 1: Sweet Corn Velouté
- Remove the corn cobs from their husks and cut along the base to retrieve the corn grains (keep 4 large tablespoonfuls of them per plate for the rest of the recipe). Put them into a saucepan with the milk, cream and chicken bouillon. Cook on a medium heat for 20 min. Mix and filter to obtain a smoother velouté. Lightly salt and pepper.
- Leave to cool completely before refrigerating for 1h.
Step 2: Marrowbone
Rinse and brush the marrowbones. Put them on a baking tray and grill them in the oven for 15 min.
Step 3: Garnish
- Brown the sweet corn you have kept with a dab of butter in a frying pan, adding salt and pepper.
- Dice the marrowbone and add it to the grilled sweet corn.
Step 4: Plating-Up
Put the cold velouté into a soup dish and place in the center the marrowbone garnished with sweet corn grilled to the core.
