Corn Season on our San Francisco Tours

On our San Francisco Tours, we talk about eating locally. The good news is that on our latest trip to to farmer market, we found that corn is in season. As we mention on our San Francisco food tours, fresh food, in season has great flavor. The good news is that corn is starting to show up at the farmers market. As we talk about on our San Francisco tours, fresh corn in incredibly sweet. I'm not usually a fan of microwaves, however it is really an easy way to cook corn. Just take the corn in the husk, put it into the microwave for three minutes, give a quarter turn, go for another three minutes, give a quarter turn, then cook for a final three minutes. On our San Francisco food tours, we talk about cooking food simply. Fresh food doesn't need much to have it taste good. Fresh corn is like that. I like to eat it within a day or so of after I get from the farmers market. As we talk about on San Francisco tours, fresh produce has lots of natural sugar. The older the produce is the more the sugar breaks down and turn to starch. As we mention on our San Francisco food tours, the best place to get fresh foods is the farmer markets, so it is very fresh and really sweet. Some people like to boil corn, however I find that the water absorbs alot of the corn's flavors. On our San Francisco tours, we find the good foods is complex and has great natural flavors. As we find on our San Francisco food tours, good food has those great flavors. It doesn't need much more added to it.
