If you’ve had the chance to purchase some fresh, locally-grown produce from the Whitewater City Market (Tuesdays, 3-7 PM) or Saturday Farmers Market (8 AM – Noon), perhaps you’ve picked up some corn. (A longtime reader kindly suggested doing so at the City Market, and it was an excellent recommendation.)
If corn, then a recipe for corn. There are many, but here’s one that you may find to your liking:
PREPARATION
Prepare a grill, with heat medium-high and rack about 4 inches from the fire. Put corn on grill and cook until kernels begin to char, about 5 minutes, then turn. Continue cooking and turning until all sides are slightly blackened.
Mix together mayonnaise, lime juice, chili powder and some salt and pepper in a small bowl. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more lime juice or chili powder if you like. Serve corn with chili-lime mayo.
INGREDIENTS
4 ears of corn, husked
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 to 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice, or to taste
¼ teaspoon chili powder, or to taste
Salt
freshly ground black pepper
