Grilled Corn with Feta and Lime
By jgreghenry Published August 3, 2010
Prep time: 30
Yield:1 (Servings)

Ingredients:

  • 4 ears of corn, in husks
  • 2 T mayonnaise
  • 1 lime, juice and zest only
  • 0.25 t chili powder, to taste
  • 2 oz feta cheese
  • 0 kosher salt to taste
  • 0 lime wedges as needed

Directions

Heat the grill to high. Soak corn in cold water for 10 minute, turning occasionally. Peel back the husks of the corn without removing them completely. Remove as much of the silks as you can. Return the husks to as close to their original place as possible. Transfer to grill. Cover; cook, turning often, until husks are charred, 10 minutes. Remove. Using a kitchen towel, pull back husks. Combine mayonnaise, lime juice, and chili powder; brush onto the partially cooked corn. Return corn to grill (with husks pulled back and off heat). Cover; cook, turning often and brushing with more chili-lime sauce as needed, until kernels are charred in spots, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove to a serving plate and dust with finely grated feta cheese. Season with coarse salt and serve with lime wedges on the side.

We Weed-Whackers Stick Together: Pasta Salad with Feta & Dandelion

Ingredients for Pasta Salad with Feta & Dandelion

I have a pasta salad today, a dandelion pasta salad. This salad is made heavenly with the addition of feta cheese. It’s such a good salad it took two cooks to make it. Not that it is difficult. But there is a rather complicated story surrounding its creation. And because this other cook is a blogger, you can read her thoughts on this salad by clicking here.

But from my point of view I'd like you to meet the new girl in town. Formerly known as Spinach Tiger, I have renamed her for the purposes of this post. For the next thousand words or so she shall be known as– Dandelion Kitty!

That’s because Ms. Dandelion Kitty (Angela to some) was a recent visitor to my house. Which may not seem like such a revelation but you see she lives in Nashville and I live in Los Angeles. The other interesting fact is we started our friendship more as virtual friends than actually face-to-face friends. You see we were blog friends. But I put face to blog last November at the #FoodBuzz Festival and something about that face (and that blog) just stuck with me!

Still, inviting someone you barely know from across the country to come stay at your house may seem odd. But you see I knew somehow there was a greater purpose in this mission. So I embraced the idea (and changed the sheets in the guest room) in preparation of her arrival.
