Bucatini with Sweet Corn and Scallions
This creamy yet light pasta dish, loosely based on a recipe from “Mastering Pasta” by Marc Vetri and David Joachim, is delicious made with frozen corn kernels, but it’s even better with peak-season fresh corn. If using fresh corn, you’ll need to cut the kernels from 3 large or 4 medium ears to get the amount called for in the recipe. Fresh chilies, a generous amount of scallions and grated pecorino Romano cheese add a spiciness and savoriness that balance the corn’s natural sweetness.

Kind of like cacio e pepe with corn - delish
I made this with 5 ears of fresh end of summer corn and gluten free spaghetti AMAZING. This will definitely be a summer meatless Monday dish in rotation. If you're on the fence dive in.

Loved this!
I loved how simple this was, I think it will become my new go to for a quick and delicious meal!
Hi Jennifer -
Luckily the chilies are added at the end so I would toss the pasta with the sauce and cheese (and extra pasta water, as needed) and leave the chilies off the kids' bowls and just add chilies to yours and taste. That way you can tell if it's too spicy for them. Even within the same varietal, some peppers can be hotter than others.
Best,

I thought I had corn in the freezer but did not. So used a bag of mexican style riced cauliflower which is a mix of "Seasoned with a blend of cumin, cayenne, and lime and flavored with tomato concentrate, Trader Joe's Spicy Mexican-Style Riced Cauliflower delivers all the flavors you'd want in a Mexican-inspired dish. with diced tomatoes, tri-colored bell peppers (red, yellow, and green), and pickled jalapeños" and followed the recipe otherwise! It turned out great.
