Anne Bronte once wrote, “A light wind swept over the corn, and all nature laughed in the sunshine” and though it is already evening, our poetic vibes and romance with corn dishes are at an all time high as rain clouds hover above us. To quench the summery thirst of the parched Earth, rains are here and so is our love for lounging on the balcony along with cravings for Mexican street corn which is simply a-maize-ing even when life is so corn-fused.
If you ask us for a love advice, we’d suggest you to corn-fess your love to bae with Mexican street corn under the rains. Word play aside, check out this drool-worthy recipe below and thank us later:
