If you plan to try grilling corn this summer, be sure to soak your cobs in water for 15 minutes before placing them on the grill. This pre-soak allows for the husks to get wet so they don't start on fire when you grill them!
And, if you haven't grilled corn before, you'll want to remove the silk from under the husk before soaking. This makes the corn easy to eat without having to worry about the silk {or, as many as you can... see the lone silk fiber below}.
I wanted to try this last year, but my husband isn't big on corn on the cob. Good thing he is out numbered by girls. We will definitely be grilling this, this year for sure :)
ReplyDeleteYum, grilled corn on the cob... Pass the butter. :)

This is the only way we eat corn on the cob, I don't remove the silt first though. I just soak it, throw it on and then peel it all off, the kids love it and it won't be long and we'll be eating it 3 times a week! :-)
