I’m headed back to Indiana soon to visit family and that always brings one vegetable to mind…corn.
Fresh sweet corn is my second favorite summer vegetable after heirloom tomatoes. I’ll admit I have pretty high standards for it, too. We grew up eating it straight from the garden so I know a good ear of corn. The kernels burst in your mouth with each bite. If there is even the slightest hint of chewiness, it’s past its prime.
Since one can only eat so many ears of corn on the cob this time of year, I’ve come up with many recipes that use fresh corn cut off the cob. These are a few of my favorites to enjoy every summer from soups to salads to relishes!

Corn is sooo good right now. š Especially from Brentwood!
It is! Someone told me about Brentwood corn when we first moved to CA. It seems the whole Bay Area associates corn with that city. I’ve been meaning to do my research about why it’s so popular. I’ve gotten some pretty good corn elsewhere as well. š
