Grilled Corn Spreads

These spread recipes are awesome on cooled, grilled corn! Remember to always use high heat when grilling corn and rotate every few minutes. The kernels should get browned, shriveled, and slightly charred works, too! Recipes are for 4 ears of corn, broken in half for easy handling. Mix the spread well and let the ears cool completely to prevent excessive moisture seeping into the spread (plus keeping your hands from being burned!)
