PREPARATION:
Chop the onions and celery and slice the carrots into rounds. Cut the corn kernels off the cob and set aside, reserve the cobs.
In a soup pot, melt 2 tbsp of butter and sauté the chopped onions, celery and carrots for 5 minutes, then add pressed garlic and chopped tarragon and cook for 30 seconds longer, then sprinkle the flour all over and mix in to combine.
Add the fish stock, a bay leaf, chunks of potatoes and the corn cobs, from which you cut off the corn kernels earlier. Bring to a boil and let everything simmer over medium heat for 10 minutes, remove the corn cobs with tongs and discard.
