Growing up in Mexico City, I didn’t know a single person who celebrated Cinco de Mayo, except for the people who lived in the state of Puebla. We didn’t even get the day off! Sure we studied it in school–the unprecedented victory of a small Mexican militia against the large French army in 1862–but it was a short-lived victory, as the French won right back.
Fast forward 150 years to 2012: the French and Spanish are gone; Mexicans proudly celebrate Independence Day every September 16; yet, for reasons few of us can explain, Cinco de Mayo has become the greatest, most joyous, colorful celebration–for Mexicans living abroad. As strange as the nostalgia is, the longer I live abroad, the stronger the impact Cinco de Mayo has within my soul. These words fluff up like soft conchas right out of the oven, getting fluffier, sweeter and more comforting as the years go by.
As do so many Mexicans (and, increasingly, non-Mexicans), I celebrate anything that can be celebrated about our Mexicaness: our heritage, resilience, hard-working and accommodating nature, our warmth, hospitality, generosity, the vibrancy and richness of our music, dance and food. Above all, our tendency to tirar la casa por la ventana (to throw out the house through the window) when it comes to throwing a party.
Thankfully, as Cinco de Mayo celebrates its 150th anniversary this year, the spotlight is finally being cast on Puebla, the place where that famous battle took place. At last, the celebration that has become the rage beyond Mexico’s borders is coming back to the place where it originated. It’s about time!
Puebla is a hidden treasure, a colonial jewel with rich history, architecture, arts and culture, coupled with an exquisite overlay of modernity. Most important, its one of Mexico’s main culinary hubs.
Some of our most iconic (and most labor intensive) dishes come from Puebla, born in convents where Spanish and Mexican cuisines wedded so beautifully. There’s the classic mole Poblano, with its layers of complex flavors subtly coming together once in your mouth; and there’s the colorful chiles en Nogada whose red, white and green represents the Mexican flag.
Yet Puebla is also home to a bounty of homestyle accessible dishes like the chicken tinga and the corn torte. And it’s home to one of my favorite Mexican ingredients: the chile Poblano. See below? That is how many Poblano chiles I go through a week in my house.
This key ingredient has never ceased to charm me, from the moment I get it at the store to the moment I taste its exuberant, fruity flavor. It is, quite simply, sublime. Each time I cook a dish with a Poblano it feels like a celebration, as if I were right there in Puebla, but the party just happens to unfold inside of my home.
If you can’t get to Puebla anytime soon, try this soup for a Cinco de Mayo moment, be it Cinco or not.

Creamy Poblano Soup
Recipe Yield
Cooking time
Rate this recipe
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 cups chopped white onion
- 5 to 6 poblano chile peppers (about 1 1/2 pounds total) roasted or charred, sweated, peeled, seeded and diced
- 2 cups corn kernels shaved from a cooked fresh ear of corn, or cooked from thawed
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher or coarse sea salt or to taste
- freshly ground black pepper or to taste
- 3 cups chicken broth may substitute for vegetable broth
- 1 cup milk
To Prepare
- Place a large soup pot over medium heat; add oil and butter. Once the butter melts and begins to sizzle, add the onion. Cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the onions have completely softened, everything is cooked through and the edges turn slightly brown (about 10 minutes total).
- Add the poblano chiles, stir and let them cook along with the onion for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Make some room in the middle of the pot; add the corn and sprinkle the salt and pepper. Let everything cook, stirring occasionally, for another 3 to 4 minutes.
- Pour in the chicken broth. Let it come to a simmer and cook for 3 to 4 additional minutes so the flavors start to blend. Reduce the heat to low, wait for about a minute, and slowly pour in the milk.
- Heat the soup thoroughly for about 6 to 8 minutes, without letting it simmer or boil (if you do, it will appear curdled but still taste fine). Serve hot. Makes about 5 cups.

Delicious, but spicier than I expected. I put an extra cup of broth and I think I’m going to add a potato.

I made this soup tonight using homegrown sweet corn and poblano peppers. I also had just made a batch of chicken bone broth using wing tips and chicken feet. So when all these goodies mixed in the pot it created a most delicious and nutritious feast. I was out of milk so I subbed a can of evaporated skim milk. It turned out fine. Thank you for sharing both the backstory and the recipe Pati! I hope I can visit Puebla some day and experience the culinary wonders of the city.

Thank you for this wonderful recipe. As to the cinco de mayo early celebrations, it is not difficult to explain if one desires to understand the the history of Mexicanos in the United States and their role in self determination and civil rights. Research, as done with food, brings with it a wealth of knowledge.

Saludos Pati,
I’m thrilled to have found you on TV. I love all of your recipes, especially your tacos and main dishes.
One I would love to have is your salmon that was shown on July 27th. I believe the salmon isn’t cooked but marinated in an extraordinary recipe of salsa. As you said during the program “you could feed the whole neighborhood with this salmon recipe. I particularly like your advice saying buy a quality piece of salmon.
My best wishes for your continued success.

Pati,
I just wanna say that I am sooooooo grateful to have found you, your cooking, and your blog. Your recipes have helped me to get in touch with my Mexican heritage. Of all mis amigas y primos, I’m the only 20-something that has interest in making the dishes from scratch ( though the others don’t mind eating them!). Your recipes give me culinary inspiration and something to work towards. They make me feel closer to my grandfather and great aunt, who are from Guanajuato, and my grandmother and great aunt, who are from Monterrey. I also enjoy when you explore cultural mash-ups, like French-mex, and your mexicanized American food! In the future, I hope you’ll do more of that direction.
This soup is one of my favorites, a definite go-to for me. It’s like a cup of comfort in cold weather, and so simple to make! In the other comments, I saw a question about coconut milk, and I would like to confirm that it works splendidly! A word of caution, though. The flavor you’ll get depends on the brand of coconut milk you buy. Each brand is different. Some are sweeter than others, some are better blended, some have more coconut oil than others(makes them richer), and some have more coconut water/are watered down. You’ll know after a bit of trial and error which brand works for you. Recently, I added black beans to the soup, for more heartiness. They work well with the corn! Am thinking about chicken in the future, but not sure yet….
I also have some requests. After a period of cooking, I got up the nerve to make flour tortillas from scratch, and they were delicious! But they were nothing like tortillas from the panaderias, or like you’d get from the street vendors. Do you think you could do a recipe for those? Maybe corn ones too? My corn tortillas are a total flop 🙁 ….. And some recipes for conchas and panderia-style galletas would be great! Ooooh, and atole!
Of course, I’m always looking forward to your next post/show, and can’t wait for the new season! What day will it start?
Muchisimas gracias, Pati!

Hey Pati! Gracias para las recetes. They helped immensely, and my cooking is now Tia grande approved! Love love LOVE the new season. My Grandfather’s side of the family is from Guanajuato (specifically San Miguel), and though I’ve never been there before, I cling to your episodes like a window to my family history. This season has helped me to understand some of our personal family traditions and why we do some of the thing we do and like some of the things we like. I especially feel justified in my love of mangoes! Please keep doing what you’re doing, because you’re changing lives.
On a side note, I would also like to let you know that my great aunt adores you! She watches your show regularly, and would rather watch you and Perry Mason than the prime time shows any day. I told her about how you interact with your fans and how dedicated you are to your craft, and she thinks the world of you. She’s in end-stage liver disease, but I have been able to cook most of your recipes with little to no modification, and it makes her day. We have bonded over your show and recipes, and I would really like to thank you for that <3.
Hasta luego,
Sarah

Hi Pati,
I made this soup and it was great, very comforting on a cold day. But mine didn’t seem to get a thick and creamy as yours on the show. I used 2% milk. Any suggestions?
Pati
Jan 19
Hola Charli, I’m so happy to hear you liked the soup! May have been the thinner consistency of the milk; you can try simmering a little longer to thicken it more next time…
Sarah

Hi Pati, loved the soup! How can I make it spicier? Use a jalapeno?

Hi Pati!
Just writing to you to congratulate you on your program and to thank you for your contribution on the history of Mexican food! I’m a fellow “chilango” (raised in Mexico City) and a fellow Texan (I live in Austin), and I love your program and the background you give on Mexican cuisine.
I belong to an artistic movement called “Steampunk,” which basically means we are fans of historical-based science-fiction, like Jules Verne’s novels and the Wild Wild West movies, so we build contraptions and write novels and games in the style of 19th. century sci-fi.
This last 5th of May, at the Brassgoggles forum, I de-mystified the “Cinco de Mayo” celebrations (Battle of Puebla), and it was the perfect opportunity to talk about the French Intervention, the Maximilian period, Benito Juarez, and naturally “French-Mex” food, as this is an interesting part of Mexican history (see web-link above – you can publish that).
In any case, just wanted to comment on it and thank you for your effort in spreading the word about Mexican food!
Doña Pati, quedo de Ud, su humilde servidor

In addition to the poblanos, I quickly seared some dried peppers and let them soak in the chicken broth and then blended it smooth before adding it, and also added some shredded chicken. Very delicious on a cold Colorado afternoon!

Hi pati! Mom’s been under the weather and has requested a corn chowder for tomorrow but I would like try this instead. Seems a bit lighter than a chowder. Do you think roasting the corn rather than boiling it would change the soup too much? Is there a protien or other sides you think can go well with this soup?
Kirsten
Oct 05
This soup is so delicious. Here in Colorado, it’s easy to find the chilis already roasted.I added a little cubed potato in mine and it was really good. This recipe is easy and takes so little time. Just the right amount of heat for a chilly day.
Pati

Hi Kirsten, It sounds delicious with cubed potato! Thank you for writing…

Very difficult to buy fresh Poblano in eastern Canada. I do have the dried form “Ancho”. Can it be substituted? Thank you, great Blog.
Pati
Jul 19
Hi Frank,
That will change the soup completely. Can you find fresh Anaheim? You can also use Green Bell Peppers, not the same flavor at all, but will be tasty as well.
Daniel
Apr 28
Since retiring, my wife and I have gotten into much more cooking and she is especially loving Mexican recipes.(Me too) We will be making this soup in the next few days and look forward to it. Where do you find poblanos with heat? We have gotten them from several different grocery stores and they are good, but taste more like bell peppers, no heat, and we like it spicey. Are we doing something wrong? Would the dehydrated peppers be better?
Pati
Apr 29
Hola Daniel, Poblano chiles range from very mild to very hot, and it’s hard to say what you are going to end up with. Use fresh poblanos for the soup and leave in the stems and seeds if you want more heat.

Hi Pati,
I recently discovered your show and just love it! I’ve made a couple of your items and they came out delicious! I would love to make the creamy Polano corn soup but I have a question: Is it possible to use coconut milk as a substitution for regular milk? I am not adventurous by any means and I’d hate to try it only to fail! Thank you so much! Look forward to reading more of your blog and seeing the beautiful pictures you post! Thank you – Adriana in California:)

If I get the soup to hot from the chilis how to you get done of the gear taste(flavor) out? I know you said it on the show but I can’t remember.
Pati
Jan 14
Hola Robin, a great way to tame the chiles is to soak them in hot water with ab it of brown sugar. But if the soup is already made, the best thing is to add more milk, more broth and a bit more of corn..

Hi Pati!
Love your show, you are awesome! You make Mexican food sound exciting and accessible! Each episode leaves me hungry and wishing I could make that recipe immediately. Alas with a 3 month baby at home plans dont always work out! Inspired by few of your shows I now have some tomatillos and poblano chiles in my fridge. I have a dinner to plan for this weekend so I am wondering I could use this soup recipe with a twist?
Fingers crossed!

Dear Patti
I love watching your show. I love this soup. I added ahredded chicken because its just my wife and me. it was an incredible one dish meal. I’m making it a second time and saw other recipes that add garlic and puree the pepper. What do you think? I’d like to puree some of the mixture of garlic onions and poblano. I’m using six poblanos and adding a 1/2 a onion which would give me about a 1/2 a cup of puree to add to the stock. I don’t want to ruin but rather enhance.
I love your Matzah Ball soup as well. Do you have anyother Mexican dishes I can use for Passover. No such thing as Mexican Tzimmes. Right?
Thanks for an edifying experience everytime I watch you show
Richard Carlin
Pati Jinich
Jan 09
Hi Richard, Thank you so much for watching the show! Of course you can experiment with the poblano soup by adding garlic and pureeing with some of the onions and poblanos. The puree may alter the consistency of the soup, so adjust your amount of stock to make it thicker or thinner. Also, careful with the garlic, it can easily overpower so no more than a few cloves. Other than the Matzo Ball soup, Flourless Almond Porto Cake is also great for Passover: http://patijinich.com/pati_2020/2010/03/flourless_almond_cake/. All the best to you!

Your recipes are fantastic and like others I can practically taste them as I watch your show. I live in Northern NM and love the food here but your recipes take it to a different level. About soyrizo. I use it and like it but it is not as spicy or tasty as the real thing, chorizo. I can’t wait til I get your book. When I watch your show I have to tell you that it is also a comfort zone for me. I am learning so much from you and I can listen to your show all day…..its a comforting feeling that is hard to explain. Its your style and its great!

I watched a show where you took corn tortillas and made chips of them and then baked them. A sauce was made in the blender from using tomatillos and some other ingredients. I looked on your list of recipes, and could not find this one. I forget the name of it, but thought it would be a very good way to use corn tortillas that my son left at my house. It could had been a soup, however, I don’t recall. Could you please email me this recipe?

I have a grandaughter who is part hispanic and of course, she is just beautiful. I also love your web page. You have so much to share and you don’t mind sharing your recipes. I want to thank you. I will let you know when I try to cook some of your dishes. I plan to try them out on Marcos, my son-in-law, who is hispanic. He came to America from the Vera Cruz area. He wants my daughter to learn how to cook more Mexican dishes so I told her about your show. So long for now. I will talk to you again soon.

I love, love, love your show on PBS. You are a great teacher explaining the ingredients etc. Your food looks amazing and I want to do it too now. Your tomatillo show was great. You showed how easy it is to prepare them in a salsa and with chicken. Thank you. I love salsa verde on lots of things. I tried mixing it with avocado and crema and drizzle it on eggs and enchiladas. Wonderful. Much better than the bottled that I thought was so tasty.
