- During the Great Depression, people did not waste anything - including corn cobs! After the corn was cut off of the cobs, they were used to make Corn Cob Soup. This is a very simple and easy recipe. You can add anything that you want to it - rice, noodles, vegetables, crackers, etc.

I use everything that can possibly be used as well. I just finished dehydrating my tomato skins leftover from salsa and stuff. I will powder it and use it a a bullion for soups. All my veggies scraps go into the freezer for broth making.
It’s wonderful to hear that you use everything possible when you can. Thank you for watching and have a good day👩🏻
Me too!
@@lisapop5219 that's great!! 🥰🥰
I keep a bag in the freezer and when i get some bones i roast the bones and then make bone broth with the veggies and use it as stock. :)
Good ideas for tomato skins!
My grandma usually made corn cob jelly, which I love! I've never thought to make a broth before, I bet it would make a great base for corn chowder as well.
It would be a great base for Corn Chowder. Thank you for watching and have a good day👩🏻
It makes a great base for a lot of soups, especially if you only have one or two cobs to toss in. The jelly sounds really interesting!
"Taste like Corn" Gotta Love Grandpa's take on the soup. Lol. Both you guys are so enjoyable to watch. Thank you Grandma Feral for this simple soup recipe.
Thank you for watching and have a good day👩🏻
Pretty color broth, saltines are the cherry on top of this soup. Raised on corn so I know I would love it.
Thank you for watching and have a good day👩🏻
@@GrandmaFeral you too Grandma, love your channel
Ive had this but with chicken bullion and noodles added. It was lovely.
Thank you for sharing the ingredients you added. Have a great day👩🏻
I like Corn so I will be making this Soup.
I am happy to hear you will be making this soup. Thanks for watching👩🏻
Awesome! Thanks again, Grandma! You're the best!
Thank you for watching and have a good day👩🏻
I saw a video recently showing how to make corn cob jelly. It was interesting. I never realized what could be done with what are considered scraps
During the Great Depression Era they would never waste anything. Thank you for watching 👩🏻
Thanks for this easy soup recipe.
Thank you for watching 👩🏻
Thank you for this recipe! Corn cobs have alot of flavor! Please keep these delicious and economical recipes coming Grandma♥♥♥
I will keep the economical recipes coming. Thank you for watching and have a good day❤️👩🏻
I just discovered this channel and im so happy!! It reminds me of when my family would all get together back in the early 90s... before my granny and all of the older folks passed on... I miss the family togetherness and the amazing food and everything 😢 thank you for these videos 🤍
I am happy you discovered my channel. We had a very large family with so many passing on. We miss them all. My Mom made sure that we knew how to make her recipes. She lived a long life and still was baking right to the end of her life. Thank you for watching and have a good day👩🏻.
I've never heard of this soup. My parents had a garden with corn every year and Momma froze it. Some was on the cob and some cut off. Sometimes she would cut the corn off and make creamed corn. 😋
This is what my Grandmother made especially during the Great Depression. Thank you for watching and have a good day👩🏻
I Have Great Respect For The People And Their Creativity Of Those Times ,Thank You For Your Video !!!
Thank you for watching and have a good day👩🏻
Same. I can’t cook. I get panic attacks. Can’t imagine trying it with no internet recipes and what modern times have brought us. However I do think living in a rental with a tiny kitchen and really no space for a garden bc all we have is a tiny patio full of wasps is a big problem as well.
Yum
Thank you for watching 👩🏻
Looks so good. Great for this time of the year! 🥣🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽❤️
When Corn is in season this is an easy soup to make. Thank you for watching and have a good day👩🏻
I love your channel and the music in the background is wonderful. I think i would scrape the cobs when it was all done.
Thank you for watching and have a good day👩🏻
This is my favourite soup to make when it is cold out. I always buy up a bunch of end of season corn and have friends save their cobs for me so I can make them cob stock in the fall. This is the epitome of comfort food for me. Corn cob stock just adds an incredible depth of flavour to food that it's a shame to see the best part go to waste.
Glad to hear Corn Cob Soup is your favorite. Thank you for watching and have a good day👩🏻
I’ve never made this soup, but I do make corn cob jelly with our garden corn. It’s very light and almost tastes like honey! I usually can a half dozen jars every year. It’s wonderful on biscuits.
Thank you for sharing that you make corn cob jelly every year. How wonderful! Thank you for watching and have a good day👩🏻
Thx y'all. I processed 3 dozen ears of corn last night, just picked. I got 28 cups of corn for the freezer. Now I'll have that yumny fresh corn taste all year! Blessings, julie
Thank you for sharing that you will have fresh corn all year. Yummy! I appreciate you watching❤️Grandma👩🏻
Wow... truly a great depression dish!
Thank you so much for watching❤️Grandma👩🏻
Keep rockin, grandma :).
I have been Rockin And Rollin For A Long Time. Thank you for Watching And Have A Good Day👩🏻
I don’t waste anything either. I’ll freeze it first! The milk in the Cobb is what makes it good I bet. I’ve put Cobbs in veggie soup before. One thing I never thought of was using potato peels though. Hmmm. Its still food and vitamins! Glad I found your channel. Makes you think twice. Thank you.
Thank you for watching and have a good day👩🏻
I am going to start doing this! I like to make egg noodles and they would be great in this
Thank you for watching and egg noodles will be so good in this soup👩🏻
Maggie thats an amazing idea!! I live off of egg noodles!!! And im thinking I should make this soup add some corn and carrots and leeks and egg noodles for a wonderful rainy night meal... apparently we have severe cold thunder storms coming in tonight and this soup with egg noodles sounds like the perfect thing to sit on the porch and watch the rain with!! Thanj you both!
@@GrandmaFeral your family is truly blessed to have each other! Keep food and family is the most important parts of life!! 🤍🤍
This is amazing, I would never have thought that you could make soup from corn cobs, thank you for sharing Grandma and Grandpa can't wait to try this ♥
Glad you will be making this easy and delicious soup. Thank you for watching❤️👩🏻&👨🍳
I love corn! Yummy!
I love corn also and look forward to are Long Island corn👩🏻
This is really good..I liked it a lot and will be making it often..
This soup is a favorite of mine to make. I am glad to hear you will be making it often. Thank you for watching👩🏻
I've had some really great corn on the cob this year...but I don't think there's enough left on the cob for this once I'm through with it!😂 Now, if I was cutting the kernels instead of chomping them, I'd absolutely either scrape off the remnants, or use the cob to flavor a soup. It's really good to flavor any kind of soup stock (chicken, vegetable, pork, clam chowder, etc.), especially if you only have one or two cobs on hand at a time.
Thanks again, Grandma! Always a treat!
Hi Patricia I love Corn On The Cob and when I am done nothing is left on the Cob. When I was younger and just had the cob left I would spread butter on it and suck on the Cob. So Good! Next time I make a soup and have a Corn Cob I will use it for flavor. Have A Great Day ❤️👩🏻
I remember this recipe and i have some corn cobs from last night will be cutting the corn off and making this again ..... Thank You
I just made this the other day when the fresh corn was on sale in the supermarket. So good! Thank you so much for watching and Enjoy! ❤️Grandma👩🏻
@@GrandmaFeral Yes fresh would be better ....
Its corn season, I'll be making corn stock this week. I dry silks for tea & husks for fire starters. No waste.
Thanks for sharing how you don’t waste any part of the corn❤️Grandma👩🏻
I own that dishware. Great video
Hi glad to hear you also own the same dishware. Thank you so much for watching❤️Grandma👩🏻
Those were the good old days
They sure were thank you so much for watching and have a great day👩🏻
Going to give this a try!!!
I am happy to hear you are making this flavorful soup. Thank you for watching and have a good day👩🏻
I make corn cob jelly almost every year. I can the corn, boil the cobs and make jelly with the juice, then I gave the cobs to the chickens. WHen the chickens were done cleaning the cobs I collected them for fire starters, the silks I dried for tea, and the husks I used in a wreath but the middle clean ones could also be used for tamales. I also made my own version of substitute corn syrup and canned it along with the extra boiled corn juice I canned for using later on. I use everything up to the max! I never thought of making boiled cobs into a soup! Thanks!
Thank you for sharing what you do with the corn cobs. How wonderful to use them to the max. I am happy you will be making corn cob soup. Thank you so much for watching and have a good day👩🏻
Catchy tune in the background
Thank you for watching 👩🏻
I wonder how this compares with (Chinese) Corn Soup, ingredients and cooking method. The saltine crackers, regular or low sodium, would add any salt you want for the corn and soup. -- And this probably compared all with the corn pudding (Native American) recipe you did. It'd be very nice for soup stock other uses. I'll bet that is very soothing, and nutritious. You/d get a lot of good from the corn cobs. Good stuff! Thanks, Grandma Feral.
Tip: Grandma added 2 cups of water because she didn't want it to go dry or the corn cobs to go uncovered. If you add 2.5 cups, then that gives 7.5 cups overall, which gives 1.5 cups of water for each of the five corn cobs used, so it would scale up nicely. Haha, I'm a traditionalist: when we ate corn on the cob fresh, all it needed was butter and salt, a little pepper if people liked that, so the soup is good this way, and saltine crackers crumbled into soup is right up there with that usual thing. -- I miss my own grandmother/s homemade vegetable sop, or with beef (roast or chuck cubed) in the soup.
Very easy soup. It's getting soup season I'll have to try it.
Hi Zoa Glad you will be making this soup. Love to Marty👩🏻
I just cooked 3 corn on the cob in my croc pot with a dash of salt and butter, on high for 4 hours and removed. Corn was DELICIOUS. Came here to see what I could do with the juice. Maybe add some veggies?
Sounds great! I would add some veggies.❤️Grandma👩🏻
I scrape the cobs after I cut the corn off, then boil the cobs to make a broth for corn chowder. Love it with BLT sandwiches. When I was a kid, we went to the Farmer's Market and got bushels of white field corn or Trucker's White. It was the best corn ever. We cut it off the cob, scraped the cob and them my Mother blanched it. After it cooled, we put it in containers to freeze. Can't find that corn anywhere now.
Thank you for sharing your childhood memories. I have never heard of those types of corn. Thank you for watching and have a good day👩🏻
WOW !!! Great way to reuse thw cobbs !!! Thank You i might add some thinkener in mine , salt & lots of peper , love peper !!!
Thank you for watching and have a good day👩🏻
I wash my potatoes really well.. I peel them, I fry the skins .. makes great skin potatoe chips..
Thank you for sharing as I like potato chips👩🏻
Yummy! I have to try this!
I am happy to hear you will be trying this soup👩🏻
My mother used to make corn cob jelly.
It’s a sweet taste of summer in a jar. So Good! ❤️Grandma👩🏻
I make leek soup almost identical to this... simply leeks salt pepper water butter and occasionally I will go wild and add other veggies or lots of different seasons sometimes some kale or spinach and even some thinly sliced potatoes .... seriously everything can be started from a soup base like this!!!
Thank you for sharing how you make the leek soup. Yummy👩🏻
Thanks for this upload, do you have a homemade recipe for cream corn?
2 (10 ounce) package frozen corn kernels thawed

Whisk together milk and flour, stir into corn mixture. Cook stirring over medium heat until
the mixture is thickened and corn is cooked through.
Remove from heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted. Serve Hot
Enjoy!
My Dad loved Corn cob jelly. ever made that?
No but I would like to made the Jelly. Thank you for watching 👩🏻
We used to make that broth then Poach an egg to sit on top of the saltines after they were crumbles and out in soup
Grandpa would enjoy it that way since he likes Poach Eggs. Will try it next time I make the soup. Thank you for watching 👩🏻
That sounds lovely. I'll bet it would be good with "egg rags" in it, too (eggs scrambled, drizzled raw over simmering soup, count to 10, then stir in, to cook in ragged bits, as in egg drop soup). Then crumble in the crackers.
This I've never had. It's a interesting soup. I'm not sure about this one lol. But you're husband said it was good. So we will see 👀
This is such a good soup. You get two meals from the Corn Cob. You remove the corn from the cob and have it as a side dish or use it in a recipe. You make the soup with the Corn Cob. I am looking forward to are local grown corn 🌽
@@GrandmaFeral I'm going to make it for Larry and I. He loves corn.🌽 I'll have him pick up some next time he's out. We have a friend that's shares a garden with us. Thanks for all the recipes. I'm going to share your page with my grandchildren children. Thanks again. 😊
😁😉😍🧡💛💚👻 yummy
Thank you for watching. Take Care❤️👩🏻
Love the videos. Do you have cookbook?
I am so happy to hear you love the videos. I am seriously thinking about making a cookbook.
Is that Grandpaw playing the guitar?
No thank you for watching❤️Grandma👩🏻
Do you ever use the back of a knife to scrape the last bits of corn into the soup?
No thank you for sharing and have good day👩🏻
Grandma,
Could you put some cream into the soup?
Hi you can add some cream into the soup. During the Great Depression people would make meals with just a few ingredients. Now if you make these meals you can add other ingredients if you like. Thank you so much for watching❤️Grandma👩🏻
Oops, I’d add noodles or make dumplings.
Great additions to this soup👩🏻
Can you eat the cob?
Yes you can eat the cob but they must be boiled, steamed, roasted or fried. Most people don’t consume them regularly. Enjoy the soup and thank you for watching❤️Grandma👩🏻
If you don't have cobs, would you be able to use the corn juice in the can to make the soup?
I have never made the soup with corn juice but you can try and let me know how it turns out. Thank you for watching 👩🏻
@@GrandmaFeral I'll try it. Thanks.
