GRILLED CORN ON COB WITH KIMCHI MAYO AND SCALLIONS
Steps:
- Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
- Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, kimchi brine and soy sauce in a small bowl.
- Toss the corn with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the corn, turning occasionally, until cooked through and charred, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat, spread with the kimchi mayo and sprinkle with the scallions.
CREAMED CORN
Steps:
- Cut the kernels off the corn and place in a bowl. Use the back of a knife or a butter knife to "milk" the cobs. (This means applying pressure to remove any of the juice left from the kernels being cut off.)
- Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook until softened and translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in the corn and any liquid scraped from the cobs. Cook until the kernels are bright yellow, shiny and softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Stir in the cream cheese until it is melted and combined into the corn, another 2 to 3 minutes. Taste for seasoning. Transfer the corn to a serving dish and sprinkle with the chives. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a heavy small skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and saute until tender and fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove the skillet from the heat and cool. Set aside 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan cheese and stir the rest into the garlic mixture, along with the parsley and salt.

SCALLION CREAM CHEESE
I used to buy the little 2 ounce cups of this from the bagel place I go to on my way to work. Now, I make it myself and bring my own bagels from home, to save money, and it saves a stop on the commute...gets me in the office earlier and OUT earlier! This stuff keeps well in the fridge for days but I just store mine in the fridge at work. I mark it, in magic marker "JUDY" and everyone know to leave it alone or incur the wrath of the queen.

Steps:
- Put the cream cheese, scallions, milk and salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until smooth.
- Put in an airtight container into the fridge. In my experience, it keeps well for about a week to 10 days.
Tips:
- Choose fresh corn on the cob: Look for ears with bright green husks and tightly packed kernels.
- Prepare the corn properly: Remove the husks and silk from the corn. If desired, cut the corn into smaller pieces.
- Use a flavorful cheese: A sharp cheddar cheese or a creamy goat cheese will add a lot of flavor to the dip.
- Don't overcook the corn: The corn should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight crunch.
- Serve the dip warm: This dip is best served warm, so make it just before you plan to eat it.
