Sweet Corn with Lime Butter and Cotija Cheese

corn-with-cotija-cheese

This isn’t really a recipe, it’s a suggestion of sorts.  An amazing suggestion that you should take to heart immediately, but a suggestion nonetheless.

The next time you have some fresh corn to eat, take a stick of softened butter and beat the juice of a lime into it.

Cook the corn wrapped in foil over an open fire, or in your oven if there’s no open fire available, until it starts to soften a bit.  It won’t take long.

Spread the corn with the butter and sprinkle with crumbled cotija cheese and too much salt and pepper and then eat it, share it and sigh because despite my best efforts, summer is coming to a close.

You can thank me later.

    I have been eating fresh corn like crazy. Peaches and tomatoes, too. I’m like a bear readying for hibernation. Now, I must just find some of that cottage cheese!

    Sweet corn – delicious! But never have tasted Cotija chees …
    Referring back to your comment last week (about the fires) that you came with everything covered in soot – oh my, that must have been an intensive clean up! Also inside the house?

      Hi Jesh,

      It wasn’t too bad. Basically just wiping everything down. It was a small price to pay instead of losing the whole house!
