SPICY CORN ON THE COB WITH MISO BUTTER AND CHIVES



Spicy Corn on the Cob With Miso Butter and Chives image

Corn slathered in miso butter is special enough, so you're within your rights to ignore any other ingredients in this recipe. But for lovers of spice, the Japanese spice blend shichimi togarashi is worth seeking out. In English, it translates to "seven-flavor chile pepper," though not all of those seven flavors are chile: There's also roasted orange peel, sesame seeds, ground ginger and seaweed in the mix. Add it gradually, so as not to overpower the subtle flavor of the miso butter (and because everyone likes a different amount of spice). If you can't find shichimi togarashi, substitute crushed red-pepper flakes.

Tips:

  • Cook the corn on the cob properly: There are several ways to cook corn on the cob, including boiling, steaming, grilling, and roasting. No matter which method you choose, make sure to cook the corn until it is tender but still has a slight crunch.
  • Use high-quality butter: The better the butter, the better the chive butter will be. Look for unsalted butter so that you can control the amount of salt in the recipe.
  • Use fresh chives: Fresh chives have a more delicate flavor than dried chives. If you don't have fresh chives on hand, you can use 1 teaspoon of dried chives instead.
  • Season the chive butter to taste: Add salt and pepper to the chive butter to taste. You may also want to add a squeeze of lemon juice or a pinch of garlic powder.
