Grilled Corn on the Cob

Grilled Corn, Almost Ready...

Marian Blazes

Grilled corn has a delicious nutty roasted flavor, and a slight crunchiness that goes great with other grilled food. If you can find some large kernel South American corn, it's excellent cooked this way.

Ingredients:

  • 6 ears of corn, shucked
  • 6 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 2 teaspoons cumin
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt

Preparation:

  1. Cut the ears of corn in half, and trim off the ends.

  2. Mix the melted butter with the cumin and salt.

  3. Brush the corn generously with the melted butter mix.

  4. Grill corn over medium high heat for 5 to 10 minutes, turning frequently, until the ears appear lightly browned in some places.
