CORN, TOMATO AND BASIL CHOWDER

Steps:
- Slice corn kernels off cob and place in a bowl. Run back of a knife along each cob to remove additional corn pulp. Add pulp to bowl; reserve cobs.

- Stir in corn kernels and pulp, tomatoes, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper. Simmer for 20 minutes more. Stir in the basil and lime juice. Turn off heat and let soup cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. Serve warm with a dollop of crème fraîche or sour cream, if using.

CORN CHOWDER WITH BASIL
Steps:
- Shuck corn and, working over a 6-to-8 quart kettle, cut off kernels, reserving cobs. In kettle simmer corn, cobs, water, and salt and pepper to taste, uncovered, until corn is tender, 10 to 20 minutes. Carefully pour off liquid from tofu. Discard cobs and transfer half of corn mixture to a bowl. In a blender in batches purée tofu with corn mixture from bowl until smooth, transferring to kettle. Finely chop basil and stir into chowder with scallions and salt to taste. Heat chowder over moderate heat, stirring, until heated through.
- Garnish chowder with basil sprigs and serve with jalapeño sauce.
CHILLED CORN SOUP WITH BASIL
No-cook, chilled blender soups are so quick to make it almost feels like cheating. This one stars sweet corn that's been tarted up with buttermilk and lime juice, spiced with garlic and scallion, and imbued with fresh herbs. While straining it isn't entirely necessary, it will give you a smoother, more elegant soup. But when it's too hot to breathe, let alone dig out the strainer, you have our permission to skip it. Serve this in espresso cups or shot glasses as an hors d'oeuvre, or in bowls as a first course.

- Add buttermilk, basil, scallions, lime juice, garlic, salt and 1/3 cup ice cubes to the blender and purée until very smooth.
- Strain mixture through a sieve, pressing down hard on the solids. Serve soup garnished with radish slices and a drizzle of olive oil.

Steps:
- In a large, deep pot, fry the pork in the water over medium heat until the water is gone and the pork is lightly browned and well rendered.
- Add onions and garlic and cook until the onion is translucent. Add wine and clams, then cover and steam until the clams open. Remove clam shells from clams. Chop the clams fine and return to the pot.
- Add spinach, basil and peppers and simmer four minutes. Run a sharp knife down all the rows of corn kernels and, using the back of a stiff knife, scrape the kernels off the cob onto a plate. Add kernels to the pot and boil one minute. Add milk and cream and return to the boil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

CREAMY CORN SOUP WITH BASIL
This soup is divine when made with freshly picked sweet summer corn. There is no cream or dairy: The creaminess comes from thoroughly whizzing the corn. For the creamiest texture, pass the puréed soup through a fine-mesh sieve.

Steps:
- Put 3 tablespoons olive oil in a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven set over medium-high heat. When the oil starts to look wavy, add the onions and season well with salt and pepper.
- Let onions cook, stirring, until they begin to soften, about 4 to 5 minutes, then turn heat to medium and continue cooking until onions are quite soft, about 15 minutes more.
- Add the garlic and corn kernels, and stir to combine. Add 6 cups water and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to a gentle simmer. Taste the resulting broth and adjust salt to taste. (It should be well seasoned.) Cook for about another 10 to 15 minutes, until the kernels are tender. Stir in squash blossoms, if using, and turn off heat.
- Working in batches, purée the soup in a blender. Pass the puréed soup through a fine-mesh strainer and into a large bowl, pushing down to press all the liquid out. Discard the fibrous debris left behind.
- Check consistency and seasoning, and adjust as needed. (Add a bit more water if the soup seems too thick.) The soup can be made up to a few hours ahead up to this point, and tastes best the day it's made. Reheat, if needed, before serving.
- To serve, ladle into individual bowls. Drizzle about a teaspoon of olive oil over each serving. Quickly chop the basil, and sprinkle over to finish.
