Tips:

  • Choose the best ingredients: Use fresh, high-quality corn and butternut squash for the best flavor. Look for corn that is plump and has a bright yellow color. Butternut squash should be firm and have a deep orange color.
  • Cook the corn and squash properly: To get the best flavor and texture, cook the corn and squash until they are tender but still have a slight crunch. You can boil, roast, or grill the vegetables.
  • Don't overcook the basil: Basil is a delicate herb that can easily be overcooked. Add it to the dish at the end of cooking to preserve its flavor and color.
  • Season the dish to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Corn and butternut squash with basil is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or main course. It is a great way to use up fresh summer produce and is a healthy and flavorful addition to any meal.
