Spectacular Sweet Corn Recipes
Have you ever looked at a mountain of in-season, fresh sweet corn at a farmers market stall, and wondered what all you could do with that beautiful bounty?
Maybe you’ve fallen in the common rut of seeing “boiled or grilled” as the two main options when it comes to serving fresh corn.
... Or perhaps you’re like my husband, and could happily live with eating corn for every meal, every day, and not get sick of it.
No matter what kind of corn fan you are, you will definitely find inspiration here!

Spectacular Sweet Corn Recipes
Sweet Corn Bruschetta Recipe
This recipe is simple, elegant, and easy to tinker with. It’s beautiful and delicious with the most simple of balsamic vinegars… but is *mind blowingly amazing* if you can get your hands on peach balsamic vinegar.
Sweet Corn Panna Cotta
This is an incredibly quick and easy recipe to make, and one that’s sure to please. Even just the aroma of the corn steeping in the milk/cream mixture… oh, it smells amazing!
Quick Sweet Corn Soda Recipe
While my traditional brewed soda recipe involves yeast, fermentation, and you know… WAITING… this corn soda is easy to make, cooking up in just minutes.
It’s also very versatile. With this syrup, you can make basic corn soda, corn cream soda, run it through a soda machine, or just enjoy it as a quick soda mix, a little at a time. You can also use it in place of heavy simple syrup in craft cocktail design!
This potato salad is a departure from the traditional, creamy version. It has the perfect combination of textures. The sweetness of the roasted corn plays well with the salty, smokiness of the bacon… and a fantastic dressing ties the whole thing together. Also: it's great served warm OR cold!
Marie's Low Country Boil Recipe
Low Country Boil is one of our absolute favourite summer dinners.

Corn Cappuccino
Corn Cappuccino started out as a joke on This Hour Has 22 Minutes ... but turned out to make a legitimately tasty drink! Here's how we did it.
These recipes are some of the MANY fabulous sweet corn recipes featured in my book, "Maize Craze: Spectacular Sweet Corn Recipes". I'd say "If summer eating was a book, this would be it!", but then I think of the Roasted Sweet Corn Chowder and Hearty Corn and Black Bean Soup and have to take pause on that thought!
Anyway, if you're a fan of fresh sweet corn, you should definitely treat yourself to a copy! It's available directly through our site, through Amazon, and through most major booksellers!)
