Steps:
- Preheat broiler with rack in the center of the oven.
- First prepare the Glaze. Mix all of ingredients for the glaze in a small saucepan and place over medium heat. Simmer and stir until sugar is melted. Remove from the stove and set aside.
- Line a small baking sheet pan with aluminum foil (the glaze gets sticky). Place corn on the lined baking sheet and rub with olive oil and sea salt. Place baking sheet under the broiler for about 8 minutes (every broiler is different so you must keep an eye on it). Check to see if corn is slightly browning on a few kernels and turn to the other side. Continue to watch corn and roll making sure all sides are getting slightly golden brown, total time about 15-20 minutes. After corn turns slightly brown brush the top side of the corn with the glaze. After about two minutes roll corn to the other side and brush with more glaze. Continue to do this about three or four more times as you roll the corn every 1-2 minutes each time making sure the glaze is caramelized and the corn is completely covered in the glaze. Make sure the glaze doesn't burn.
- Remove the corn from the oven, sprinkle with Shichimi Togarashi (if using) and serve warm.
INSTANT POT CORN ON THE COB
No need to heat up a big pot of water -- and your kitchen in the process -- just to enjoy some fresh summer corn. Cooking corn in a pressure cooker with minimal water allows the flavor to shine through, and it couldn't be easier. Serve simply with butter, salt and pepper.

Steps:
- Add 1 1/2 cups water to a 6-quart Instant Pot® and add the rack. Stand the corn on the rack, broken ends down (the corn will fit snugly). Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 4 minutes (see Cook's Note).
- After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick-release cycle is complete. Being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid.
CORN ON THE COB LATINO
Corn baked in banana leaves with spices. This is something I created. I hope you like. Also you may want to chop up onions and cilantro and add over the mixture before you wrap it up. Throw it on the grill until you feel it has cooked long enough. You could even cook this in a pit under hot coals.

SPICY CORN ON THE COB WITH MISO BUTTER AND CHIVES
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.

Steps:
- Heat your grill to medium-high. Grill corn, turning occasionally, until cooked through and lightly charred, 10 to 12 minutes. (Alternatively, drop corn in a large pot of salted boiling water and cook for 5 to 7 minutes.)
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together butter and miso paste.
- Slather hot corn with miso butter. Sprinkle with chives and shichimi togarashi, and serve with lime wedges alongside for squeezing.
Tips:
- Selecting the best corn is essential. Choose ears that are heavy for their size and have tightly packed kernels.
- Keep the corn husks intact while boiling to preserve the corn's natural flavor and moisture.
- Add some salt to the boiling water to enhance the corn's sweetness.
- Experiment with different seasonings to create various flavor profiles.
- Serve the corn on the cob immediately after cooking to enjoy it at its peak freshness.
