Step 1

Preheat oven to 450 Fahrenheit. While the oven is preheating, toss the kernels in 1 Tablespoon oil and and 1/4 teaspoon sea salt. Place on a baking tray. Roast the corn kernels for 15 -20 minutes (toss halfway to prevent burning). Corn will be slightly golden brown.

Step 4

Pour blended soup into a medium pot. Heat on medium heat until it comes to a soft boil. About 2-3 minutes. Then, reduce the heat to low until ready to serve.
