GRILLED OLD BAY® CORN ON THE COB
Mexican street corn is one of my favorite ways to eat corn but I wanted to try something different. I came up with this Cajun version by replacing lime with lemon, chili powder with Old Bay®, cotija with Parmesan, and cilantro with parsley.

CORN ON THE COB WITH OLD BAY AND LEMON
If you've had the pleasure of eating your way through a bucket of Maryland blue crabs poured out onto newspaper, you've probably had Old Bay seasoning. It's a blend of celery salt, black pepper, crushed red-pepper flakes and paprika, and any member of its fiercely loyal Mid-Atlantic fan base will tell you that it should be present at any proper crab or shrimp boil. In this recipe, you get lots of that seaside flavor without having to source fresh blue crab.

CORN ON THE COB WITH LEMON-PEPPER BUTTER
Roasting fresh-picked corn is as old as the Ozark hills where I was raised. My Grandpa Mitchell always salted and peppered his butter on the edge of his plate before spreading it on his corn, and I did the same as a kid. Today, I continue the tradition by serving lemon-pepper butter with roasted corn-it's a favorite! -Allene Bary-Cooper, Wichita Falls, Texas

COD AND CORN WITH OLD-BAY BUTTER
This one-pot seafood dinner is inspired by the New England clambake, a festive meal cooked in a fire pit and enjoyed with melted butter. Here, cod and corn cook in a garlicky broth of bottled clam juice for instant shellfish flavor. A final swirl of paprika-spiked Old-Bay butter adds smoky depth to the dish, usually brought by smoldering logs. Leftover butter can be refrigerated or frozen for later use; it's great on roasted potatoes and grilled shrimp or steak.
