Subject: Corny recipes for the summer

Hello BFM fans,

Pati Jinich, Mark Bittman
and Becky Krystal are all into corn this week. Is it peak corn season? We are
lucky that Garner’s Produce always plants a late field of corn so we (usually) have great corn into October.
As Becky Krystal says: we will give you an earful of
fresh corn recipes this week
