- Ears of fresh ‘Peaches & Cream’ corn
Directions:
Boil everything together in salted water for 10 minutes. Serve with fresh bread or biscuits and a giant perfect salad.
Ingredients for Spicy Blueberry Butter:
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1 lb soft salted butter
- 2 Tbsp honey (or maple syrup)
- 2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 2 Tbsp roasted garlic
