Red Hook style corn, originally uploaded by Brockenbrough Photos.
The Red Hook food vendors that gather around the soccer fields there on weekends used to serve this corn. The sauce – what gives this corn that extra little kick – is a mixture of mayonaisse (several spoonfuls for 2 ears), paprika (about 1 or 2 tablespoons depending on how hot you want the sauce) and cilantro (chop into thin ribbons about 1 handful for every 2 ears).
