Butta

Some people refer to the seasons by their formal names; summer, spring, fall and winter.  I refer to the seasons by the type of cooking I do during that time.  Winter is comfort food.  Spring is light and refreshing.  And summer is grilling season.  I enjoy grilling the typical items like brats, turkey burgers, portabellos.  But I like to find ways to put a twist on these typical items.  Yesterday I grilled some corn on the cob.  What kind of twist can you put on corn on the cob?
Tip: Butta. Its all about the butter.  You can add a number of things to plain butter and give it a twist.  You probably already know about the common honey butter, one of my faves still.  But did you know you could add other seasonings to butter to flavor it up?  Try some things like dill, chopped rosemary or paprika.  You will be surprised at how much a little seasoning can turn plain butter into something gourmet.  If you like spice, try putting some tabasco or sriracha in it. Be creative and enjoy!
