Thick vegetable soups like Spiced Cauliflower or Potage of Swede & Bacon need something bready, either to dip, or to spread good stuff on top of.
These soup dippers are a good bet. Inspired by Ella's vegan fritters, 67 used non-common-wheat flour, and replaced vegan dairy products with organic cows milk. Obviously going full vegan is also an option.
Eat these warm if you can (store in the bottom of a medium oven separated by squares of greaseproof paper and wrapped in a clean tea towel). They'd be great with bacon jam (if you've no blood pressure issues) or vegan tomato jam. 67 likes them best topped with avocado dipped in lemon juice and lightly seasoned with salt and pepper.

'I love corn and this is a delightful way of eating it. It's worth getting fresh ears when in season.' Retired writer
Tips:
If corn is on the cob, remove leaves and the silky covering; drop into a large pan of boiling salted water; let the water return to the boil; turn off heat, cover and leave 3-5 mins. Cool. To remove niblets, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOJrREMXBYo
