Corn
One of the best spring vegetables, corn can be enjoyed during long, warm days and light spring meals. Generally speaking, for the sweetest corn, it’s eaten as close to harvest as possible. Incidentally, there are six types of corn kernels grown in the U.S. – flint, flour, dent, pop, sweet, and waxy.
