Corn soup

Last summer we went to a dinner at a local restaurant that was offering a menu based on Charlie Trotter's book Raw. One of the highlights was a raw corn soup, garnished with hearts of palm and curry oil. (I don't own the book, but luckily this recipe is available in the Google books preview.)
My little stick blender wasn't quite up to the task of pulverizing the corn completely, so I strained the soup and used the leftover corn to make corn oysters. Yum!
