What method do you use/whats your favorite way to cook corn on the cob? Standard boiling, on the grill or microwave? (I actually know people that prefer it that way)
Pull the silk off, but leave the husk on. Wrap with foil, place on the Barbi for about 15 minutes, turning 1/4 turn every 5 or so. Foil holds the moisture in, it comes out sweet and sort of smokey-flavored. To my taste buds, there is no better way to cook the stuff! (Seems to me we had a thread with a poll about how to eat the stuff last summer) -TD
A big pot of hot boiling salted water. Put the clean ear in for just a minute, some people say just a few seconds... The reason is that when corn tooks too long the starch(aka sugar) turns pastey and looses it's natural sweetness.
Then I put it on a plate and put lots of soft or melted butter on it and then sprinkle with a mixt of salt and Accent.(Japanese call it Ajishio, about 10% MSG), then pepper. Yum.
Alternatively I do the grill thing with cleaned corn still in the husk and dunked for a minute or two in water before putting it on the grill.
I like it best on the grill after soaking in water for a while, but it is quick and easy if it's in the microwave 2 1/2 minutes per ear (shuck and all) and then pull it out, strip it down and apply butter. MMMMMMMM GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!
