Hungry for Truth

Hungry for Truth is an initiative sponsored by local South Dakota farmers through the Soybean Checkoff, designed to open conversations about food between South Dakotans and the farmers who grow it. We’re putting it all on the table to have open, honest conversations about how our food is raised and its safety.

Healthy eating begins on the farm where farmers raise nutritious crops by protecting them from diseases, pests, and harsh weather from planting to harvest. Healthy eating continues in your home with proper storage, handling, preparation, and cooking. Explore our site to find healthy eating and food safety tips, delicious recipes to share with your family, and meet a few local farmers along the way!

We have the perfect soy marinade recipe for your upcoming grill out. Because of its tangy flavor, soy sauce can be used to reduce the amount of salt in a recipe or as a substitute, especially in savory foods. This is a great option for those looking for ways to reduce sodium in their diets.

Soybeans are also part of a nutritious diet for livestock. The cows, pigs, and chickens making their way onto your grill eat soybean meal as part of a balanced diet. Soybeans are packed with protein and essential amino acids that help keep them healthy as they grow.

GRILLED SWEET CORN WITH ZESTY AIOLI

Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: 12-15 minutes | Servings: 6 people

Oftentimes, the simplest things are the sweetest. Grilled sweet corn is a traditional side dish that adds a fresh, sweet crunch to almost any meal. A summer cookout just isn’t the same without this warm, golden treat topped with butter and salt. If you’re looking for a recipe that kicks up the flavor a notch, we highly recommend trying this recipe for Grilled Sweet Corn with Zesty Aioli.

INSTRUCTIONS

1) In a food processor, combine egg yolk, garlic and salt.

Blend until smooth. 2) With motor running, add oil until consistency begins to look like thick mayonnaise. 3) Transfer to a bowl. Season with cayenne, lemon juice,

Sriracha and pepper. 4) Cover bowl and refrigerate until ready to use. 5) Pre-heat grill. 6) Place corn in a bowl of cold water for 10 minutes to help prevent burning on the grill. 7) Place unhusked corn directly on grill for about 7-8 minutes.

Close lid. Rotate half-way through for even cooking. Take corn off grill and remove husks. 8) Drizzle corn with oil and place back on grill. Continue to rotate corn until golden brown on all sides. Remove corn from grill when golden brown. 9) Take aioli sauce out of fridge and brush onto all sides of corn.

Sprinkle with smoked paprika and squeeze lime on corn. Enjoy!
