Our Winter here in Minnesota has been sooooooooooooooooooooo long this year. It finally hit 70 degrees yesterday and I was rejoicing in triumph that maybe, just maybe we have finally beaten this long, dreadful Winter. When I went to the local meat market and saw a box of corn on the cob I nearly fell over. Maybe Spring has sprung and fresh produce is on it’s way after all! All Winter our produce is so limited and the dull flavors leave me craving the flavor packed produce that Spring and Summer deliver. I scooped up an armful of corn on the cob and headed home to grill some steak and prepare some Mexican Street Corn!
