Salmon with Zucchini and Corn Cream Sauce

Enjoy this Salmon with Zucchini and Corn Cream Sauce. it’s easy enough for weeknights and impressive enough for guests. It's simple enough for a weeknight yet elegant enough for any special occasion.

The salmon gets seared until golden, then you make the sauce by sautéing shallots, garlic, fresh thyme, red pepper, zucchini and corn. Then whisk some heavy cream and Dijon mustard, add it to the vegetables along with some white wine and let it reduce a bit and finish the sauce with a bit of butter, lemon juice and zest. You can either spoon the sauce over the salmon or pour it on a plate and top with the salmon.

Gnocchi with Corn & Miso

I love using miso paste and try to always have it in my fridge. Miso is a fermented soybean paste, and is used in many Japanese dishes. It adds depth, complexity, and umami. Its versatility extends far beyond its traditional use in miso soup. This Gnocchi with Corn & Miso is a brilliant combination. The soft, pillowy potato dumplings provide a perfect base for the sauce. The sweet and juicy corn adds a fresh, summery element and the miso brings umami depth and a savory richness.

Hot Corn Dip

This Hot Corn Dip is from Celebrate with Babs, by Barbara Costello, 2022. I have to say, it didn't last long, it's so good. You can make it ahead and put it in the oven before serving. I divided it into 2 separate casserole dishes, which worked well.

Spicy Baby Corn Satay

I've always like canned baby corn, but I mainly use it in stir fries. This Spicy Baby Corn Satay is a new and different idea. This makes a great appetizer. Next time I will try it with a yogurt dipping sauce.

Creamed Corn

I grew up in Indiana and the only Creamed Corn I had came out of a can. I suppose it is because it was the '60s when eating out of a can was the thing to do. Anyway, I decided to make my own version of Creamed Corn and it's super easy and WAY better!

Sweetcorn Slaw

This Sweetcorn Slaw recipe is from Plenty More by Yotam Ottolenghi. It has shredded cabbage and carrots with plenty of fresh sweet corn that is chargrilled in a ridged pan to give it a hint of smokiness. I didn't have a red onion, so I substituted sliced green onions, which worked well.
