I used to remove the silk from the corn and let it soak in water before grilling. Not any more. I just put the corn on the grill husks and all. If I want some of the kernel charred , I pull out some of the outer husks. I blacken the corn husks on all sides. Once the corn is done, I let the corn cool and serve with butter, salt and pepper. A great summer food.

I still haven't bought any fresh corn this year...now I really crave some.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait until fresh local corn is at the farmers' market, another couple of weeks probably, to try this as so many people swear by it. I always boil it for a couple of minutes, but I remember growing up on the farm, I'd pull an ear off the stalk in the field, husk it and eat it as is. :-)
ReplyDeleteYour photos are very mouth-watering. We've only had corn once so far this summer. Here in Michigan the season hasn't really started yet. Looking forward to the local product!
