2 Amazing Raw Soups From The Rawtarian

Raw corn chowder and raw cream of celery soup from Laura Jane, The Rawtarian.

raw corn chowder

Ingredients

1 cup fresh corn kernels (you can used well-drained, unsweetened canned corn if you must, but it’s so much better [and raw] when using fresh, uncooked corn sliced off the cob!) (plus you’ll need more corn to garnish – see below)

1/4 cup cashews

3/4 cup water

3/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 cup more fresh corn kernels (reserve)

Sprinkle pepper (reserve)

A few sprigs of fresh cilanto (optional)

Directions

1. Peel your corn on the cob. Slice the kernels off the cob by holding the corn cob vertically and slicing down toward your cutting board. Be careful! (If you’re using canned corn, make sure to rinse and drain the corn kernels. Pat dry with a clean tea towel.)

2. Add all ingredients (except the second amount of corn, the pepper and the cilantro) into your high-speed blender. Blend on high until very smooth and well-blended. Blend for an abnormally long time because you want this raw corn chowder recipe to be slightly warm when coming out of the blender.

3. Pour liquidy corn mixture into a bowl(s). Add remaining corn and stir with a spoon. Garnish with pepper and chopped cilantro (optional).

4. Eat this raw corn chowder recipe immediately, while still warm from the blender!

The Rawtarian’s Thoughts

Raw corn chowder recipes are so good when you want that creamy, warm, cuddly feeling of a bowl of thick soup! And corn is so sweet that this is practically like a yummy, comforting sweet appetizer or entree. Mmm!

If you’re using fresh corn for this raw corn chowder recipe you’ll want to have at least three or four corn cobs on hand.

This raw corn chowder recipe makes enough for one large bowl for one person or two very small appetizer cups for two people.

Note: I normally add garlic to my raw soup recipes. However, do not add garlic to this raw corn chowder recipe because you want this soup to be quite sweet.

 

raw cream of celery soup

IngredientsSONY DSC

1 cup of roughly chopped celery

1/4 cup cashews

1/2 garlic clove

3/4 cup water

1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon celtic sea salt

1/2 cup finely chopped celery (reserve – do not blend)

Directions

1. Add all of the raw cream of celery soup recipe ingredients (except the last 1/2 cup of celery) to your high-speed blender.

2. Blend in your high-speed blender. Start blending on low and work your way all the way up to high. Blend for a very long time so that the stringiness is blended and so that the soup recipe warms up nicely from the speed of your blender.

3. Place your 1/2 cup chopped celery into a bowl. Pour blended celery soup mixture on top of the chopped celery. Mix gently with a spoon.

4. Serve immediately. For an added touch, garnish with thinly sliced avocado.

This raw cream of celery soup recipe makes enough for one big bowl or two very small appetizer cups.

The Rawtarian’s Thoughts

Raw cream of celery soup recipes, similar to my other soup recipes are so darn simple and a great add-on to a somewhat smaller raw vegan lunch or dinner.

I like this raw cream of celery soup recipe when I want something light and creamy at the same time. Raw soups actually make great snacks, too (especially once you get the hang of making them, you can throw them together super quick, like, 5 mins!)!

I can’t really think of any major tips to give you. Just make sure that you blend this recipe up for a very long time so that it gets very blended and so that it warms up, as well.

Because celery can be stringy you’ll definitely want to make sure that you use a high-speed blender for this raw celery soup concoction.

Cream of celery soup is close to my heart because apparently my mom ate nothing but cream of celery soup when she was pregnant with me!
