Corn Husk Spoons

Brilliant Idea: Serve Corn in Its Own Husk

0

There are a countless number of corn preparation ideas at the peak of the vegetable's season, but one of my preferred ways to eat the warm-weather vegetable standout is by giving its kernels a quick sauté with herbs and spices. Recently, I learned a new way of serving my favorite dish.

At this year's SF Chefs, chefs Laurence Jossel and Gonzalo Guzman of Nopalito offered charred corn with cotija in a minispoon of actual corn husk, tying the edges with another thin strip of husk. The result? An attractive, eco-friendly, fun way to eat corn that's not on the cob. Have you ever tried something similar?
