Chilled Corn Bisque with Basil, Avocado, and Crab

Great recipe for a hot summer night! Had some leftover roasted corn so used that. And, used an immersion blender instead of pureeing and straining - much simpler and still got the creamy smooth texture.

Very pleasantly surprised at this bisque, even after reading reviews. Used all 1/2 & 1/2, which might have helped for richness factor. Put about 1/2 of soup thru the strainer, and then used immersion blender on solids until very smooth. Very pretty and quite tasty; served with simple toasts of french bread and a good chardonay.
