This corn is unforgettable, it is so good. We love to eat it in the summer because that’s when it’s corn season. If you are having a sale to raise money on your street, we recommend you bring out a grill and do this recipe since it’s so simple.

Italian Corn

Ingredients

6 ears corn
Extra virgin olive oil, for drizzling
1 cup balsamic vinegar (enough to fill a not-so- deep dish)
2 cups Parmigiano-Reggiano

Directions

1. Preheat the grill to high heat.
2. Shuck all the corn.
3. Drizzle the corn with olive oil and put it on the grill.
4. Turn the corn every 3 minutes to make sure it gets cooked on every side.
5. Pour your balsamic into a shallow bowl or dish, and in another bowl, do the same with the cheese.
6. Then take the corn off the grill and roll it through the balsamic, then the cheese (so the cheese sticks). Do that with every ear.
7. When you are done with that, drizzle a little balsamic and sprinkle a little cheese on all the corn.

A combination of eggs, tomato, eggplant, fish sauce, and Edam cheese might sound bizarre — unappetizing, even — but before you shy away, let me implore you to give this savory and satisfying breakfast bite a chance. A ramekin-bound spin on poqui poqui, a Northern Philippines eggplant and egg scramble of sorts, this exotic option tastes fabulous rather than funky, as the fish sauce and Edam cheese add an umami punch rather than a domineeringly cheesy or fermented flavor.

Add to its virtues a solid dose of Summer vegetables, its ease of preparation, and a brunch-friendly nature, and it quickly becomes clear why you'll be singing its praises on first bite. If this creative take on an Ilocano classic is any indication of the quality of content tucked between the pages of The Adobo Road Cookbook, then I'll be coming back to this cookbook for further inspiration with fervor, and you should follow suit.

They help bulk up many salad and soup recipes, but they also stand strong on their own. Treat your taste buds to this Thai-inspired salad, perfect for warmer weather. Smooth and tangy ginger peanut dressing complements the chewy noodles and crisp veggies. This is one recipe you'll love having for leftovers the next day, since the flavors develop with time.

Simple, spicy, and satisfying, this weeknight-friendly kale and egg dish is just the sort of fodder I eat on an average night in. Sure, it's fun to fuss around prepping a more involved meal whose effort is worth the while, but when it comes to everyday dinners, I, like many, prioritize speed, relative wholesomeness, and a large payoff for relatively little effort. This recipe ticks all three boxes.

Even better, this versatile vegetarian option can serve dual duty. Here, gussied up with a couple poached eggs and a slab of hearty toast, it's a well-rounded meal in its own right. Omit the eggs and toast and it's a stellar side, perfect for pairing with roast chicken, steak, and the like.
