CORN ON THE COB WITH SPICY LIME BUTTER



Corn on the Cob With Spicy Lime Butter image

There's nothing to grilling corn on the cob--just put the unhusked ears over the coals and grill them until the husks are charred. The moisture in the husks and silks will create steam to cook the kernels, so there's no need to soak the corn in water first. As the grilling itself is so simple, you'll have extra time to whip up a special butter for slathering onto the hot corn. From the Kingsford Complete Grilling Cookbook.

Time 45m

SPICY CORN ON THE COB WITH MISO BUTTER AND CHIVES



Spicy Corn on the Cob With Miso Butter and Chives image

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.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 ears fresh corn, shucked
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons white miso paste
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives
1 teaspoon shichimi togarashi or crushed red-pepper flakes
Lime wedges, for serving

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:

  • Select Fresh Corn: Choose ears of corn with bright green husks and tightly packed kernels. Avoid any ears with dry or damaged husks.
  • Clean the Corn: Remove the husks and silks from the corn. Rinse the ears under cold water to remove any debris.
  • Cook the Corn: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the corn and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the kernels are tender. Remove the corn from the pot and drain.
  • Make the Spicy Lime Butter: In a small bowl, combine the butter, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, and salt. Stir until well combined.
  • Serve the Corn: Brush the corn with the spicy lime butter and sprinkle with cilantro. Serve immediately.
