Grilled Corn & Ricotta Dip
Everyone loves a good dip; This one includes grilled corn whirled up with cream, ricotta and thyme — and then scattered with Parm and baked ’til it’s bubbling hot and golden. It gets a handful of corn kernels, scallions and chives at the end, and it’s ready to go. Pair with toasty slices of baguette and a glass of sparkling wine.
