“Look at this thing. I can’t imagine a more beautiful thing.” – Tariq, CEO of corn
In honor of seven year old Tariq, AKA the corn kid, here are five corn recipes you should try…
5) Corn Fritters
Corn Fritter: a delicious, fried corn cake. Yummy. Do you think the corn kid would approve?
4) Corn Soufflé
This dish is a corn lover’s dream. It’s creamy and bursting with the beautiful flavor of corn. I have a feeling Tariq would love it.
3) Sweet Corn Cupcakes
I saw this on a Cupcake Wars episode once, and ever since have wanted to try it. I’m still waiting for the day I can bite into a corn cupcake.
2) Sweet Corn Ice Cream
I know, this one is bit on the weirder side. However, don’t knock it until you try it. I mean, I haven’t tried it, but I’m convinced corn ice cream has got to be delicious.
1) Mexican Street Corn
I finally got to try Elote this summer. As Tariq would say, it’s “corntastic”! Seriously, this dish is a burst of amazing flavors. Love at first bite.
