Best Fresh Corn on the Cob Recipe? - 07/02/2011 05:38 PM
[color:"blue"]OK... How do you make fresh Corn on the Cob???[/color]
My favorite way is to peel back the husks...
Remove all the 'silk' and then put the husk back, securing with butchers twine at the end...
Then I put the corn in a cooler, and pour in salt water from the bay to cover...
Let it soak overnight...
Then I grill it, husks on, for about 20 minutes, turning often...
Peel back the husks, add butter & pepper to taste...
(Optionally, garlic powder)...
The salt water soak gives it just enough salt!

For leftover corn, I strip the kernels from the cob and use it in Corn Bread or make Corn Fritters!
For those that don't have a ready access to natural salt water...
You can make a brine with Kosher Salt and water~!
not quite the same, but pertty darn close!
