Coconut Lime Corn

This is a variation of an Indian dish my mother makes. I love corn and I especially love it cooked till its a bit crunchy or chewy. This has been simplified to just a few ingredients, but its a quick and delicious snack. - Lena S.

Cream Corn

This is a really simple recipe but do not think for a moment it isn't complex. What I like about it is it uses the starch from the corn to thicken the cream. You could also add a small pinch of curry powder for a nice change. I like to serve this like many in the South would, with pan seared dove or quail but roast or fried chicken would be good too.

Chilled Corn Soup

This is, essentially, corn gazpacho, but even more simplified: pureed corn makes a creamy, bright yellow base; whole kernals give a satisfying, summery crunch; and a hint of fresh dill lends a cool, unexpected hint of tanginess to this simple summer soup.

The saltiness of the cheese works really nicely with the sweet corn. The mint ties it all together.

Sichuan Celery and Tofu Salad

This otherwise simple salad, adapted from a dish at Szechuan Gourmet in Manhattan, may require a trip to a Chinese market for Szechuan peppercorns and pressed tofu. And you’ll need to make your own chili oil! But here’s the thing. The effort, which really isn’t much more than difficult shopping, produces an elegant dish that is worth whatever shoe leather or mileage you’ll expend getting the ingredients together. It is astonishingly good. And we’ll even allow one substitution. You can use regular celery instead of the Chinese version!

Baked Plums with Creme Fraiche and Marcona Almonds

I remember in the 70's, when Cajun food was the thing, that grapefruits broiled with brown sugar were all the rage. Well at least in our house they were. I don't know if it was Paul Prudomme who made these famous or who but when the brown sugar melted into the grapefruit it was a nice balance of sour and sweet. Having sweet plums to use, even though they are sweet they are still a little sour, I thought this might be a great weekend breakfast side. Something to serve along side omelets or even oatmeal.

Heirloom Tomato Ceviche

My wife and I have been all over Mexico and have tasted Ceviche at every stop we could. We even were surprised to see that saltine crackers were used more than tortilla chips. We were determined to take the best of the ingredients and prepare our own dish with home grown heirloom tomatoes. Sometimes we add shrimp for substance beyond the veggies.

Tomato Sandwich

It's early here for tomatoes--- we haven't yet gotten them in our CSA box-- but fortunately there's a small farmer near us who has just started selling his tomatoes--and they are wonderful. Tomato season is so short here in the Northeast, and the tomatoes are so amazing, that all I want to do is salt them and eat them. Or have them in a sandwich. Which I do--frequently. A tomato sandwich is really best when the tomatoes are fresh picked and still warm from the garden. Slice them thickly, use the best bread you can find, and enjoy. Summer is short in these parts---this is pure pleasure.

Rice with Tomatoes

My mom would gussy up plain white rice with uncooked chopped tomatoes in their own juice, a comfort food that screamed "Summer!" to me way back then, and now this simple side dish calls the same message to my kids and grandkids. Choose a full-flavored old-fashioned variety of tomato of any color, not one that's been been bred to ship well, one that is dead-ripe but not soft, and preferably one that hasn't been chilled. Sometimes, if I'm putting on airs, I'll add chopped fresh basil, chives or thyme to the tomatoes, but I (we) much prefer it without the herbs. So simple, but satisfyingly good.

Sweet, Salty, Spicy

Whenever I think of heirloom tomatoes, I think of last year's local roadside vegetable and fruit stand that had a huge sign listing the available produce...including HERLOOM TOMATOES. (I have become a terrible speller myself...too much red wine?) This tomato recipe produces an intense sweet, salty, spicy tomato condiment that is delicious on sandwiches, salads or just as an side to the main course. Use all the ingredients somewhat lightly so as not to overshadow the luscious flavor of the fresh heirloom/herloom tomatoes.

Serves 6-8
