Corn Sweet Corn!

To Husk or Not to Husk—that is the question. The best way to cook corn is in the ear of the beholder, and whether you use traditional butter, salt and pepper, or brush the corn with your favorite oil and spices, it’s sure to be a hit at any backyard barbeque. So simple and so delicious, there’s no limit to the number of dishes you can create with sweet corn. Stop down and visit with your local vegetable specialists and take advantage of fresh sweet corn while it’s in season. Enjoy the great taste of summertime by freezing your leftover corn and taste a little summer all year long.
