Foodie Friday: Cooking With Fresh Corn



They say that corn should be knee high in July. A recent trip to the country, proved that this year’s crop should be record breaking! That corn was knee high to a giant! Fresh corn is something special, and it brings me back to my childhood, when Grandma Pearl grew her own. A piping hot ear of corn and a stick of butter is all that this little girl needed, back in the day. But there is so much more that one can do with this sweet and crunchy veggie. Time to think outside the husk, and try something new 
this Summer.

Caribbean Style Corn On The Cob
Even though as a child, plain corn was good enough for me, I actually would only enjoy it a little jazzed up as an adult. The homemade aioli, paprika, Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley are what make 
this recipe special.

Chipotle Shrimp Cobb Salad With Jalapeño Corn Vinaigrette
This recipe may take the prize for the best looking salad of all time. But it is the dressing that got my attention. Vinaigrette made from corn? It's made with other fresh ingredients like lime and honeyThe corn is emulsified in a blender, which gives the dressing the creaminess. 
Yum, right?

Fresh Corn Grits With Shrimp
My parents were from Kentucky, and hominy grits were aways part of a weekly menu. I never liked it any way Mom prepared them. This recipe just may convince me to give them another try. No hominy involved!

Sweet Corn and Black Bean Tacos
​True fresh corn ​is so creamy it does not need to be cooked, and this recipe suggests that the corn be left raw. Instead the corn is marinated in fresh lime juice. Finely sliced radishes and jalapeño lend a bit of crunch and heat, while sliced avocado and feta finish it off.
