Japanese Corn Potage
We never knew how popular sweetcorn soup was in Japan. It was served at breakfast in our hotel, as a side in restaurants and even hot in cans from vending machines. Since coming back I’ve been missing this comfort food so we made some! It’s cheap to make and is filling as well.
