Really Different Grilled Corn on the Cob- Tex Mex Style image

Fast and delish AND totally unlike any grilled corn you have ever had. Sweet corn on the cob, herbs and parmesan cheese- yes I said cheese!- take the ordinary to the extreme! You can use fresh corn but frozen is so much more convenient and can be better than fresh especially out of season.

Provided by Mamas Kitchen Hope

Categories     Cheese

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 ears corn on the cob, frozen or 4 ears corn on the cob, fresh, husked and cleaned
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, canned is ok
1 pinch sugar
1 pinch salt
cayenne pepper, to taste (optional)
1 -2 teaspoon dried herbs, use what you like, I usually use the same herbs that I used in my main dish- thyme, tarragon, basil

Steps:

  • Remove frozen corn from package and grill until corn is hot and you have nice grill marks.
  • Mix melted butter with remaining ingredients and spread all over hot corn. You can also roll corn in it, dip them or whatever method you choose to get them thoroughly coated with the yummy mixture.
  • Sprinkle corn with added salt if you like.
  • Serve immediately.
  • Tip- If you like your corn REALLY sweet- soak the ears in warm sugar water for 15 minutes or more before grilling. I usually just put the corn in a container and add 1 cup sugar and then cover with water. REALLY sweetens the corn nicely- This method can be used on fresh or frozen.

GRILLED CORN WITH SESAME-SOY BUTTER



Grilled Corn With Sesame-Soy Butter image

Mark Twain advocated for boiling corn - preferably right in the corn field. But there's no better way to cook corn than by grilling. The high dry heat of the fire caramelizes the natural plant sugars, intensifying the corn's natural sweetness while adding a beguiling smoky flavor. The key is to brown the kernels on all sides. To form a convenient handle for eating the corn, fold the husk back below the stem end. In this version, the corn is seasoned with sesame, soy, mirin and butter.

Provided by Steven Raichlen

Categories     vegetables

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon mirin or honey
Freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil, for the grill grates
4 ears corn in husks
2 tablespoons black sesame seeds or toasted white sesame seeds
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives or scallion greens

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.

Tips:

  • Choose the right corn. Look for ears with tightly packed kernels and fresh, green husks. Avoid ears with brown or damaged kernels.
  • Soak the corn. Soaking the corn in water for 30 minutes before grilling will help it cook more evenly and prevent it from drying out.
  • Grill the corn over medium-high heat. This will help to prevent the corn from burning. Grill the corn for 10-12 minutes, turning it every few minutes, or until the kernels are tender and slightly charred.
  • Season the corn. Once the corn is grilled, season it with your favorite seasonings. Some popular options include salt, pepper, butter, thyme, and Parmesan cheese.
  • Serve the corn immediately. Grilled corn is best served hot off the grill. Enjoy it on its own or as a side dish with grilled meats, fish, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Grilled corn is a delicious and easy summer side dish. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can enjoy this classic dish. So next time you're firing up the grill, don't forget to add some corn to the menu. You won't be disappointed!
