This recipe was a great hit among my friends in Rochester. I miss Rochester a lot. All of our friends and their families used to live inside the same community. It was a great fun. How to spend 6 long months of winter? We used to have frequent potluck parties. We started our parties with this soup and bread sticks. Generally we don't get this soup in restaurants here as compared to India, so people used to enjoy this soup a lot whenever I prepared it for the parties. Its very simple in cooking and appetizing.

Hey Manisha
you have a nice blog here .. i tried your recipe for sweet corn soup exactly as u posted. but instead of using the corn starch i used the corn flour. my soup came out a little thinner in consistency. is there a difference in corn flour and corn starch?
well next time i am just going to increase the quantity of corn flour to make it thicker i guess :)
thanks for recipe
