Amount Ingredient
4 cup defatted chicken broth
2 x corn ears kernels removed,
cobs reserved and halved, see * Note
4 x fresh dill sprigs including stems
2 tbl chopped fresh dill
4 x red-skinned new potatoes unpeeled, and

Instructions:
Instructions: * Note: If you like, cut 3 more ears of corn (with kernels) into 1-inch lengths and cook separately for 2 to 3 minutes. Then divide corn between bowls and ladle soup on top.

Place broth, corn cobs and dill sprigs in a heavy pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, simmer 10 minutes. Discard cobs and dill.

Add potatoes to broth and cook for 8 minutes or until tender. Add corn kernels and cook 1 minute longer. Remove from heat; pour soup through a strainer, reserving vegetables and broth.

Place yogurt and 2/3 of the diced cucumbers in the bowl of a food processor; pulse on and off just to combine ingredients (so some texture remains). With motor on, pour in 1 cup of reserved broth through feed tube and pulse machine on to just combine ingredients. Remove to a bowl. Save any leftover broth for another use.

Stir in the reserved vegetables, remaining diced cucumber, bell pepper and chopped dill. Season with fresh black pepper. Refrigerate for up to 2 hours. Serve chilled.

This recipe yields 6 servings.

Comments: Whenever cold soups call for chicken broth, be sure to defat it completely for best results. Also, black pepper is the only spice in this chowder, so freshly ground is a MUST.
