1. Toast the 8 slices of rustic bread in a toaster, skillet, or under the oven broiler until golden and crisp. If using the oven, toast at 220 °C / 425 °F for 3 to 4 minutes, watching closely so they do not burn.

2. In a small bowl, combine the drained burrata, Greek yogurt, lime zest, half of the lime juice, 1 teaspoon of the olive oil, a pinch of salt, and the black pepper. Whisk with a fork or small whisk until you get a rustic, airy cream.

3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Add the remaining olive oil and the well-drained cooked corn kernels. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the corn is browned in spots.

4. Add the red pepper flakes, honey, the remaining lime juice, and a pinch of salt to the corn. Cook 1 minute more, mixing well so the corn becomes glossy and lightly spicy.

6. Serve immediately, with extra black pepper or more lime zest on top if desired.
Chef tips
For extra crunch, brush the hot toasts with a tiny bit of oil before adding the cream. Drain the corn very well so it chars instead of steaming.
Substitutions
You can swap burrata for well-drained fresh mozzarella or creamy ricotta. Chives can be replaced with parsley or basil. For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free bread.
