Best 10 Grilled Corn With Cumin Scallion Butter Recipes

GRILLED CORN WITH GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Set up the grill for direct grilling and preheat to high.
• Strip back the corn husks, as you would peel a banana, exposing the kernels. Bring the husks together beneath the ear of corn to make a sort of handle and tie with string.
• Place the butter, parsley, and garlic in a mixing bowl and whisk or beat until smooth and creamy.
• Lightly brush the corn with a little of the butter and arrange on the grate, positioning the ears in such a way that the husks are away from the fire. Grill the corn until the kernels are handsomely browned on all sides, turning as needed, basting with the remaining butter, and most important, seasoning generously with salt and pepper. Serve at once and get ready for one of the most fabulous tastes in life.

GRILLED CORN WITH CUMIN SCALLION BUTTER

Steps:

• In a dry small heavy skillet toast seeds over moderate heat, shaking skillet, until fragrant, about 1 minute, and cool. In an electric coffee/spice grinder finely grind seeds and salt. Finely chop enough scallion greens to measure 1/3 cup. In a saucepan melt butter with cumin salt, stirring, and stir in scallion greens and lemon juice. Cool butter.
• While butter is cooling, peel back husks from corn, leaving them attached at base of ears, and discard silk. Brush kernels with some butter and reassemble husks over ears. Chill remaining butter, covered. Peel off a few layers of husks and tear lengthwise into narrow strips. Tie ends of reassembled ears with strips of husks. Corn may be prepared 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
• Prepare grill.
• Grill corn on a rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals, turning it occasionally, 20 minutes. (Alternatively, in a shallow baking pan roast corn in middle of a preheated 450°F. oven, turning it occasionally, 35 minutes.) Reheat remaining cumin scallion butter.
• Serve corn with melted butter.

CORN WITH SCALLION-LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• Pulse 1/2 stick softened butter, the grated zest of 1 lime, 2 sliced scallions and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt in a food processor. Boil 4 ears corn until tender, about 4 minutes. Drain and spread with the butter. Season with salt and pepper.

GRILLED CORN WITH CILANTRO LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• Cream butter in a bowl until smooth; mix in cilantro, lime juice, and cayenne pepper until thoroughly combined. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour to blend flavors.
• Peel husks back from ears of corn starting at the top, leaving the husks attached at the bottom of the ears. Remove all the corn silk and close husks over the ears again. Cover corn ears with cold water in a large bowl until husks are thoroughly soaked, about 20 minutes.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Place the corn in husks onto the hot grate and grill covered until husks are charred and the corn kernels are tender, 20 to 25 minutes, turning often. Strip off husks and serve corn with cilantro lime butter.

GRILLED CORN WITH SEASONED BUTTER (4 DIFFERENT KINDS OF BUTTER)

Steps:

• Prepare a fire in a covered grill.
• Working with 1 ear of corn at a time, carefully pull back the husks but leave them attached.
• Remove and discard the silk, then replace the husks around the ear.
• Soak the ears in cold water to cover for at least 20 minutes and then drain.
• To make the seasoned butter, in a small bowl, using a fork or a wooden spoon, beat the butter until soft.
• Mix in the ingredients of your choice until they are evenly distributed.
• Refrigerate if not using immediately.
• Carefully pull back the husks from each ear and spread the seasoned butter of your choice evenly over the kernels.
• Replace the husks.
• Place the corn on the grill rack, cover, open the vents, and grill until the husks are browned and the kernels are tender, about 15 minutes.
• Transfer the corn to a platter or individual plates and serve hot.

GRILLED CORN WITH CHILE BUTTER

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for high-heat cooking. For each corn cob, tear a piece of aluminum foil large enough to wrap it completely.
• In a bowl, combine the butter, chile, garlic (if using), salt and pepper. Mix well and taste. Adjust the seasonings; add drops of hot sauce if the butter is not spicy enough. Set aside.
• Shuck the corn. Use your hands to rub butter mixture thoroughly onto each cob, reserving about 1/4 of the mixture for basting. Wrap each buttered cob in aluminum foil.
• When ready to cook, place cobs on the grill (or, if the fire is low, in the coals) and cook 12 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until steamed and cooked through.
• Unwrap and place on the grill. Use remaining butter to baste the corn as it grills, turning it until lightly charred and cooked through. Serve immediately with lime wedges, if using.

GRILLED CORN WITH GARLIC-CILANTRO BUTTER

Steps:

• Place corn (in husks) in large container; cover with cold water. Let stand 2 hours.
• In small bowl, mix Garlic-Cilantro Butter ingredients. Cover; refrigerate until serving.
• Heat gas or charcoal grill. Place corn (in husks) on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 20 to 30 minutes, turning occasionally, until corn is tender. Remove husks from corn. Serve corn with Garlic-Cilantro Butter.

GRILLED CORN WITH SPICY CHILI BUTTER

Steps:

• Melt butter in small pan over medium heat. When melted, add garlic, chili powder, cumin, paprika, and cayenne and cook about 1 minute. Set aside.
• Prepare the corn by removing all but the innermost layer of the husk. The kernels should be covered but visible through the layer. Use scissors to snip off the silk ends.
• Grill the corn over medium-hot fire, turning corn every 2 minutes until the dark outlines of the kernels show through the husk and the husk is charred and beginning to peel away from the kernels, about 8-10 minutes.
• Transfer the corn to a platter. Remove and discard charred husk and silk. Using brush, brush each ear with butter mixture.

GRILLED CORN WITH FISH SAUCE AND SCALLIONS

Steps:

• Heat a grill to medium-high. Grill corn, turning occasionally, until tender and charred in places, about 10 minutes.
• In a small bowl, stir together remaining ingredients. Brush over corn; serve with lime wedges on the side.

GRILLED CORN WITH SESAME-SOY BUTTER

Steps:

• Make the sesame soy butter: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Whisk in the sesame oil, soy sauce, mirin and several grinds of pepper until well-blended. Remove from the heat and reserve.
• Set up your grill for direct grilling and heat to high (450 to 600 degrees). Brush or scrape the grill grate clean and oil it with a tightly folded paper towel dipped in oil and drawn across the grate with tongs. Fold a 12-by-18-inch sheet of aluminum foil in thirds like a business letter to make a grill shield.
• Meanwhile, cut the tapered end off one ear of corn. Pull the husk back over the stem end as if peeling a banana to expose the kernels. Rotate the corn as you peel it and gather the husks together below the stem. Tightly tie the husks with butcher's string or a strip of corn husk to form a handle. Discard the silks. Repeat with the remaining corn. Breathe a sigh of relief: The hard part is over. Brush each ear of corn on all sides with some of the sesame-soy butter.
• Arrange the corn on the grate, sliding the folded aluminum foil grill shield under the husks to keep them from burning. Grill the corn, turning the ears so they roast evenly and basting the corn with some sesame-soy butter, until darkly browned all over, about 3 minutes per side. (If you are using a gas grill, close the cover while grilling.)
• Transfer the corn to a platter. Brush one final time with any remaining sesame-soy butter. Sprinkle the corn on all sides with sesame seeds and chives.
