Cold Curried Buttermilk Soup with Corn and Poblano Chile
This soup can be made up to 1 day ahead and stored, covered, in the refrigerator; stir it again before serving, as it may separate while it sits. Poblano chiles vary in heat from mild to hot; you may need more or less to taste. If you like, garnish each serving with more cooked corn.

Ingredients
Preparation
Step 1
Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, poblano chile, and garlic; sauté until the onion is soft and translucent and the chile and garlic are tender and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Add the coriander, cumin, and turmeric, and cook until they are toasted and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the corn, and sauté until the kernels are lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and let cool slightly.
Step 3
Transfer 1 1/2 cups of the corn mixture to the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade, and add the buttermilk and salt; puree until the mixture is smooth. Transfer to a large bowl or plastic storage container; stir in the remaining corn mixture. Cover with plastic wrap, and place in the refrigerator until the soup is well chilled, at least 2 to 3 hours before serving.
