··Omega Qualified WatchmakerSweet corn in season, so having lots of that lately. Here with some Faroe Island Salmon, and baby bok choy with sesame oil. The corn was done via sous vide:
Last night I made roasted corn chowder. Started by removing the kernels, roasting them and the cobs, then simmering in water:
Other veggies were baby spuds, carrots, celery, onions, and a few roasted peppers - fresh oregano in the back ready to be added at the end:
Corn kernels removed and half of them pureed with the liquid, and half reserved. Rendered some bacon, and then the veggies go in for a while:
When those were done, added a bit of flour, then some tequila:
Added the reserved corn back in, the pureed corn, and simmered for a while:
Right before serving the oregano was added, along with the juice of one lime. Topped with some crispy bacon bits:
The recipe called for heavy cream, but we didn't add it and it wasn't needed. Very tasty.

··Omega Qualified WatchmakerOne more sweet corn recipe - saved the best for last. Sweet corn, tomato, and basil pasta sauce.
Home grown cherry tomatoes, halved and salted, plus minced shallots, and one home grown hot chili:
4 ears of corn, husked, then grated using a box grater into a pan to catch the kernels and juices:
The shallots, chili, and corn mixture are sautéed in olive oil:
The cobs are placed in water and simmered while the other mixture cooks:
After about 5 minutes, 1.5 cups of the corn stock is reserved:
The cobs are removed, and the pasta goes into the remaining water to cook:
The reserved water goes into the corn sauce, and it is cooked down for about 12 minutes:
Once I can draw a spatula through the sauce and leave a trail, the pasta is drained and added to the sauce - pasta is a bit under done to finish cooking in the sauce:
Cherry tomatoes are added, along with some butter - some reserved corn stock is set aside to loosen the sauce as needed:
The dish is finished by adding fresh chopped basil from our deck planters, and served:
Very creamy without adding any cream, and the corn flavour comes through very well. It's light and fresh tasting, and very good. It doesn't necessarily sound like these ingredients would go together, but it just works. This has to be one of my favourite pasta sauces.

··This Space for RentThat tomato is a bit anemic for August. No juice below the cut edge of the burger -- did they kill it?
Still, there really is no such thing as a bad beef cheeseburger; it's just that some are better then others 😎 I'm in my mid-50s, and probably only eat a handful of beef burgers a year. In fact, we had some horrible turkey burgers last night; my wife picked up pre-mixed patties at Whole Foods, complete with spinach and feta in the meat mixture, but they were as bland as could be. Even caramelized onions, roasted bell pepper and sliced tomato from the garden could not save them. Those patties were a crime against humanity. Thankfully she also picked up a pack of Portobellos for me to grill, which tasted 100x better than the turkey burgers (just to give you a frame of reference for how bad the turkey burgers were... 😁)
