This simple soup is delightfully delicious and perfect for a little snapshot of summer, regardless of the time of year. Corn, garlic, onion, and buttermilk are slow cooked just long enough to meld the flavors, before being blended into a thick and creamy soup. Colorful cherry tomatoes and sweet corn kernels are drizzled with olive oil and broiled until nicely charred. A light sprinkling of chopped fresh basil adds a pop of color as well as fresh verdant flavor.
