minutesI love summer corn and I love playing with the flavors of sun sweetened corn with a salty or even mustard vinaigrette. I love summer because nature really gives us so many healthy and delicious ways to cook. What I love about this is you can either use raw corn or grill the corn with a little salted butter to bring out the natural sugars. You can play with the salad and add whatever you would enjoy. Add a favorite grain or roasted poblanos for a kick. Have fun and enjoy. It’s summer time.
