Corn on the Cob with Chilies, Queso Fresco and Lime Butter
Years ago in Veracruz, I bought sweet corn from a guy in a bike cart. Mixed with mayonnaise, lime juice, ground chilies and queso fresco, it was one of the most exciting street foods I'd ever eaten.
At-Home Popcorn, No Microwave Required
Think popcorn at home means you need to use a microwave? Actually, the process gets much easier (and cheaper) (and better) when you do it on the stove. All you need is a bit of oil, some unpopped corn, and a pot with a lid.

Grilled Corn on the Cob with Glove-Box Recado
Chilly as July and August can be in San Francisco, you know it's summer when this delicious corn hits the Tacolicious menu. (It is so good that it transports you to sunshine, even if the city is socked in by fog and you're wearing a scarf.) If you already have the recado ready to go, this recipe is a cinch to make. Although the smokiness of the grill imparts great flavor, you can instead briefly boil the corn ears, halve them, and toss them with the recado-lime juice mixture. With the lime and the spices, no butter is needed. Try swapping out the corn for another vegetable, such as summer squash. To keep this recipe in the snack realm, chop the ears into thirds.

Sweet Summer Corn Soup
Perfecting this recipe required a mother-daughter collaboration. My mom started it off by cutting the kernels off the cobs, simmering the corncobs in the stock, and then scraping the cobs to capture every ounce of delicious corn flavor. Her friend Darryle Pollack taught her the trick of including potatoes and blending part of the soup to thicken it. I added warming spices like paprika and cayenne pepper to complement the sweetness of the summer corn and topped it with charred red bell peppers. Together we created a perfect soup. —Marea
