CHARRED CORN TACOS WITH ZUCCHINI SLAW

Steps:

• Cut radishes and zucchini into tiny matchsticks with a mandoline. If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a peeler to peel thick ribbons down the long side of the zucchini. Stack the ribbons and cut them crosswise into thin matchsticks. Cut the radishes into a similar shape by hand. Toss radishes and zucchini together. Squeeze the juice of half a lime over the radish and season with salt to taste. Add more lime juice if desired. Set aside.
• Over a hot grill or an open gas-stove flame char the ears of corn until well-blackened but not completely burnt. If you're using the burner method, you'll probably, quickly, notice that corn likes to pop and snap, occasionally spraying you with splats of corn. It's a little scary, which is I why I suggest you remove anyone small and easily harmed before you begin. However, I found the charred corn flavor to be completely worth the scare and hope you do too.
• Remove cobs from heat, and when cool enough to handle, shave off kernels using a large knife and reserve.
• Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat. Melt the butter and oil together and once hot, add the onion. Cook the onion for about 5 minutes, until softened. Add the garlic and cook another minute. Add the beans and sauté until hot, about three to five minutes. Turn heat to high, add the charred kernels of corn to the mixture, and toss to combine until heated through. Squeeze the juice of one lime over the corn mixture, and use the juice to scrape up any stuck bits. Season the corn mixture with salt and chili powder. Stir in chopped herbs.
• Heat your tortillas by placing them one at a time directly on a gas stove burner, using tongs to flip them after a minute or starting to brown and blister.
• Fill each taco with a few small spoonfuls of the corn mixture and slaw. Top with a spoonful of crumbled cheese. Serve with an extra lime wedge on the side, and whatever fixings you like (sour cream, avocado wedges, etc. See above).

SLOW-COOKER ENCHILADA PORK TACOS WITH SWEET-CORN SLAW

Steps:

• Spray 4-quart slow cooker with cooking spray.
• Add Pork ingredients to slow cooker; stir. Cover; cook on Low heat setting 8 to 10 hours or High heat setting 6 to 8 hours.
• Meanwhile, make Sweet Summer Corn Slaw. Heat grill on high. Brush corn with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Wrap corn in 1 layer of foil. Place on grill. Cook 10 minutes, rotating corn 3 times. Cook 10 to 15 minutes longer; remove foil, and cook corn 5 minutes longer. Remove corn from grill, and allow to cool 5 minutes. Use sharp knife to cut off corn kernels, and add kernels to medium bowl.
• To same bowl, add remaining slaw ingredients and a pinch of salt. Toss well; cover and place in the fridge until ready to serve.
• When pork is cooked and falling apart, remove it from slow cooker, and allow to cool slightly. Shred pork with 2 forks, and drizzle with sauce left in slow cooker.
• To assemble tacos, place a little warm pork in warmed 6-inch tortilla; top with sliced avocado and slaw. Sprinkle with cheese. Repeat to use remaining 6-inch tortillas.
• To assemble burritos, heat one 8-inch tortilla at a time in microwave 30 seconds. Working quickly, layer cheese, hot rice, warm pork, black beans and slaw toward 1 end of tortilla. Fold sides over the line of ingredients, and roll up tortilla (try to roll tight). Repeat to use remaining 8-inch tortillas.

JALAPENO CORN SLAW

Steps:

• Roast red bell pepper either over a gas flame until it blisters or in a skillet with 2 tablespoons oil and blister over high heat. Wrap in a wet paper towel and set aside to steam gently. When you remove the towel, most of the skin should come off with it. Scrape off the rest of the skin with a butter knife. For corn, place "unshucked" ears of corn in an oven and set at 350 degrees - roast for 30 minutes or until kernels are soft. Shuck the corn, remove the silk, cut the kernels from the cob and proceed as directed.
• Combine all the ingredients in a bowl, including salt and pepper to taste. Toss well. Cover and let stand in the refrigerator for 2 hours before serving.

GRILLED CORN AND RED CABBAGE SLAW

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Place corn on hot grill and cook until charred on all sides, about 15 minutes. Remove corn from grill and cool.
• Pour lime juice into a bowl; add cilantro, cumin, salt, and pepper. Pour olive oil into lime juice mixture while continuously whisking until dressing is smooth. Add cabbage and jalapeno pepper to dressing and toss.
• Cut corn from cob and mix into cabbage mixture. Crumble queso fresco over slaw; toss well.
