Steamed corn cobs with spinach walnut spread


Corn Cob

About:

Corn on the cob is a delicious dish that can be enjoyed on its own or as a side dish to foods of vegetable based gravy recipes. It is commonly made by grilling, boiling and roasting.

Corn is actually a unique phytonutrient-rich food that provides us with well-documented antioxidant benefits. In terms of conventional antioxidant nutrients, corn is a good source of the mineral manganese.

Of all of the cooking methods my favourite is Healthy Steaming. We think that it provides the greatest flavour and is also a method that allows for good nutrient retention.

So enjoy this steamed corn cobs with a healthy spread. This spread is made with Spinach and Walnut, similar to Pesto. Topped with Italian herbs made this spread heavenly.
