Tips:
- Use fresh basil: Fresh basil leaves provide the best flavor for this recipe. If you don't have fresh basil, you can use dried basil, but the flavor will be less intense.
- Don't overcook the corn: Corn is best when it is cooked just until tender. Overcooking will make it tough and chewy.
- Use a variety of toppings: In addition to basil, you can top your corn with other herbs, spices, and ingredients, such as butter, salt, pepper, Parmesan cheese, or crumbled bacon.
- Serve immediately: Corn on the cob is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that it is hot and juicy.
Conclusion:
Basil corn on the cob is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for summer cookouts and potlucks. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both flavorful and visually appealing. So next time you're looking for a new way to enjoy corn on the cob, give this recipe a try.
