SCALLION CREAM CHEESE CORN ON THE COB
Steps:
- Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Reserve 2 or 3 of the scallions for serving.
- Drizzle the corn and remaining scallions with the olive oil, season with a big pinch of salt and 5 to 6 turns of pepper and toss around so everything is coated. Place the scallions directly on the grill grates and cook, turning a few times, until charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Set aside.
- Grill the corn, turning every couple of minutes, until nice and charred, 10 to 12 minutes depending on the grill (just keep cooking until they are the level of charred you prefer; be careful, they will pop). Remove from the grill and keep warm.
- Thinly slice the reserved scallions and set aside.
- Combine the cream cheese, sour cream and lemon juice in a mixing bowl and whisk until smooth.
- When the grilled scallions are cool enough to handle, chop them finely and add them to the cream cheese mixture with the everything bagel seasoning. Stir to combine, taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. (You will probably need to add salt if your everything seasoning does not have salt.)
- Schmear the cream cheese mixture on the corn and serve topped with the sliced fresh scallions and additional everything seasoning.
- Alternatively, this can be made into a dip: cut the corn off the cob, mix with the cream cheese mixture and fresh scallions, pour into a baking dish, top with any good melting cheese and bake until bubbly. Serve with pretzels or chips.
GRILLED CORN WITH CUMIN SCALLION BUTTER
Steps:
- In a dry small heavy skillet toast seeds over moderate heat, shaking skillet, until fragrant, about 1 minute, and cool. In an electric coffee/spice grinder finely grind seeds and salt. Finely chop enough scallion greens to measure 1/3 cup. In a saucepan melt butter with cumin salt, stirring, and stir in scallion greens and lemon juice. Cool butter.
- While butter is cooling, peel back husks from corn, leaving them attached at base of ears, and discard silk. Brush kernels with some butter and reassemble husks over ears. Chill remaining butter, covered. Peel off a few layers of husks and tear lengthwise into narrow strips. Tie ends of reassembled ears with strips of husks. Corn may be prepared 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
- Prepare grill.
- Grill corn on a rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals, turning it occasionally, 20 minutes. (Alternatively, in a shallow baking pan roast corn in middle of a preheated 450°F. oven, turning it occasionally, 35 minutes.) Reheat remaining cumin scallion butter.
- Serve corn with melted butter.
GRILLED CORN WITH SESAME-SOY BUTTER
Mark Twain advocated for boiling corn - preferably right in the corn field. But there's no better way to cook corn than by grilling. The high dry heat of the fire caramelizes the natural plant sugars, intensifying the corn's natural sweetness while adding a beguiling smoky flavor. The key is to brown the kernels on all sides. To form a convenient handle for eating the corn, fold the husk back below the stem end. In this version, the corn is seasoned with sesame, soy, mirin and butter.

Steps:
- Make the sesame soy butter: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Whisk in the sesame oil, soy sauce, mirin and several grinds of pepper until well-blended. Remove from the heat and reserve.
- Set up your grill for direct grilling and heat to high (450 to 600 degrees). Brush or scrape the grill grate clean and oil it with a tightly folded paper towel dipped in oil and drawn across the grate with tongs. Fold a 12-by-18-inch sheet of aluminum foil in thirds like a business letter to make a grill shield.
- Meanwhile, cut the tapered end off one ear of corn. Pull the husk back over the stem end as if peeling a banana to expose the kernels. Rotate the corn as you peel it and gather the husks together below the stem. Tightly tie the husks with butcher's string or a strip of corn husk to form a handle. Discard the silks. Repeat with the remaining corn. Breathe a sigh of relief: The hard part is over. Brush each ear of corn on all sides with some of the sesame-soy butter.
- Arrange the corn on the grate, sliding the folded aluminum foil grill shield under the husks to keep them from burning. Grill the corn, turning the ears so they roast evenly and basting the corn with some sesame-soy butter, until darkly browned all over, about 3 minutes per side. (If you are using a gas grill, close the cover while grilling.)
- Transfer the corn to a platter. Brush one final time with any remaining sesame-soy butter. Sprinkle the corn on all sides with sesame seeds and chives.

SCALLION BUTTER
This butter recipe is one of two I am posting. It is recommended that this butter be brushed on lobster tails while cooking on the grill. The lobster tail should be butterfly cut, by cutting lengthwise through the tops of the shells, through the meat, but not through the bottom shell. Then press the halves apart with the fingers, do not break through the bottom shell. I believe that this could be used with the seafood of your choice, especially shrimp.

Steps:
- Mix all ingredients, keeping warm.
- Use some for basting while grilling the lobster or seafood of choice.
- Use the remainder as a dipping sauce, served with the lobster or seafood of choice.
Tips:
- Choose fresh and tender corn on the cob: Look for corn with bright green husks and plump kernels. Avoid corn with dry or brown husks.
- Soak the corn husks in water before grilling: This will help to prevent them from burning and will also make them more pliable for wrapping the corn.
- Use a flavorful butter: The butter is a key component of this dish, so be sure to use a high-quality butter that you enjoy the taste of. You can also add herbs or spices to the butter for extra flavor.
- Grill the corn over medium heat: This will help to prevent the corn from burning and will also allow it to cook evenly.
- Baste the corn with butter while it is grilling: This will help to keep the corn moist and flavorful.
- Serve the corn hot: Corn on the cob is best enjoyed hot off the grill. You can serve it with additional butter, salt, and pepper, or with your favorite dipping sauce.

Scallion butter sauce grilled inside the corn husk is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for summer cookouts.
