Ideas from Jessica

Thanks to Jessica Jenkins, who also submitted the cole slaw recipe!

1. For corn: roast it over an open flame until it's pleasantly charred. Slather with butter and the seasonings of your choice.

2. For greens: steam them until they're good and wilted. Make a paste of olive oil, lemon juice, and lots of mashed garlic. Dress the greens with the lemony-garlic-oil. So good.

3. I have two approaches to cucumbers:
- My English Nana's style: Slice them thin and marinate in white wine vinegar and dill
- Central American style: Cut in chunks and sprinkle liberally with lime, salt and cayenne pepper.
