Grilled Corn with marscapone, butter and truffles

Sep 30, 2015 ·

Sometimes I think about writing a book about my styling adventures.  There are just so many crazy moments that don't feel like real life even when they're happening and in hindsight really don't feel like real life, but would make for a really good story, nonetheless!  On one such adventurous day as an assistant, I was driving around with my boss.  It had been a long week and we were racing to a fitting and probably late when out of nowhere  we came to a brake-squealing screeching halt because of corn.  Street corn to be exact.  She loved corn it all of it's many iterations.  We actually used to joke that she was the Bubba Gump of corn because she could go on and on about all of the different ways you could enjoy corn: cream corn, corn fritter, corn on the cob... You get the idea!  Anyhow, all of this to say that I couldn't sit down and write this post without paying homage to my first (and best) boss in the styling biz!  Without further ado, the best way that I can think of to make corn is this recipe from our recent adventures at Birch!
