SEARED CORN OVER RICOTTA WITH SQUASH BLOSSOMS

A yellow, on yellow, on yellow moment 💛. The sunsets are coming people! Sear the first of this summer’s corn with garlic, lemon zest, and jalapeño until charred slightly. Serve this over quality ricotta, garnish with olive oil, salt, squash blossoms and serve with crostini and crudités.

I love this as an appetizer. I’ve always aspired to be a sophisticate martini drinker, but alas, it’s just not me. But I do love this dirty martini dip that’s all the things you’d love about a martini - without the booze - and plus cheese. What could be wrong with that?

Update your crudité platter with a little bubbly. Use leftover Champagne to create vinaigrette that triple threats as a dressing, dip, and marinade.
