the good side.













The semi-mangled piece of BBQed chicken in this picture is not really the point. The point is the corn salad directly north. I could eat this all day. It's from a now-gone restaurant (or perhaps there was more than one?) called Stringer's Fish Camp, that used to specialize in fried fish and this awesome side dish. This recipe comes from here, below is my slight modification/Europeanization.

stringers corn salad.

1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream or crème fraîche
1 to 3 tbsp cider vinegar, depending on your vinegar and your corn
2 biggish (400gr?) cans of corn, drained
1/2 cup minced sweet onion
1 jalapeno or other hot green chile (Holland or Thai would be fine), seeded and minced
salt and pepper to taste

Combine and chill for an hour before serving. Serves 4 I would imagine.
