HONEY BUTTER GRILLED CORN



Honey Butter Grilled Corn image

This technique for grilling corn uses a side pan of honey butter to thoroughly drench the corn in flavor while keeping it hot and juicy until you're ready to eat. If you are feeling creative, change the ingredients of the liquid bath: Add a couple of tablespoons of Korean gochujang and a few minced garlic cloves to the base mixture, then finish the corn with toasted sesame seeds for a sweet-hot version. Add a half-cup of sake, two tablespoons of light miso paste and two tablespoons of soy sauce for a sake-miso glaze. Blend a couple of canned chipotle chiles with a few tablespoons of lime juice, add it to the bath and finish the corn with freshly minced cilantro or mint. To complete this recipe, you'll need a disposable aluminum 9-by-13-inch baking pan, or a similarly sized stovetop-safe vessel that you don't mind getting a bit dirty.

Categories     vegetables, appetizer, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 tablespoons honey
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons mild chile flakes, such as gochugaru (see Tip)
Salt
6 ears corn, shucked
Small handful of minced fresh parsley leaves or chives

Steps:

  • Combine the honey, butter, chile flakes, 1 cup water and 1 teaspoon of salt in a deep disposable 9-by-13-inch aluminum tray.
  • Adjust the burners on a gas grill or arrange the hot coals on a charcoal grill to build a fire that is hot on one side and medium-low on the other side. Place the aluminum tray on the cooler side. Cover and let heat for a few minutes, swirling the butter occasionally until it is all melted and the liquid simmers gently.
  • Add the corn to the hot side of the grill and cook, turning occasionally, until the kernels are lightly blackened in spots all over, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Transfer the corn to the aluminum tray and turn to coat in the liquid. Keep turning as the liquid reduces to a shiny glaze, 10 to 12 minutes. (You can also cook other foods over the hot side while the corn stays hot in the tray. Once glazed, you can continue to hold the corn in the pan for up to another 30 to 45 minutes, turning it occasionally and topping up with ¼ cup water as necessary to prevent the honey and butter from burning.)
  • When ready to serve, coat a final time, sprinkle the corn with the minced parsley or chives and transfer to a serving platter.

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 10

paper muffin cup liners
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon freshly grated lemon zest
1/2 cup whole milk
2 large egg yolks
1/2 cup blueberries

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. and line six 1/3-cup muffin cups with paper liners.
  • Melt butter and cool. Into a large bowl sift together flour and baking powder and whisk in cornmeal, 1/2 cup sugar, lemon zest, and a generous pinch salt. In a bowl whisk together melted butter, milk, and yolks and add to flour mixture with half of blueberries, gently stirring until just combined.
  • Divide batter evenly among cups (batter will fill cups) and press remaining blueberries into tops of muffins. Sprinkle tops of muffins evenly with remaining tablespoon sugar. Bake muffins in middle of oven about 15 minutes, or until tops are golden and a tester comes out clean. Remove muffins from cups and cool on a rack. Muffins keep in an airtight container at room temperature 2 days.

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh corn, you can use frozen or canned corn, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Be sure to grill the corn long enough so that it is cooked through. You can check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of the corn. If it comes out clean, the corn is done.
  • Let the corn cool slightly before removing it from the cob. This will help to prevent the corn from sticking to the cob.
  • Make the blueberry honey butter while the corn is grilling. This will give the flavors time to meld together.
  • Serve the corn muffins warm, with the blueberry honey butter on top. You can also add other toppings, such as crumbled bacon, chopped green onions, or shredded cheese.

Conclusion:

Grilled corn muffins with blueberry honey butter are a delicious and easy-to-make summer treat. They are perfect for picnics, potlucks, or backyard barbecues. The muffins are moist and flavorful, with a slightly sweet and savory taste. The blueberry honey butter is the perfect complement to the corn muffins, adding a touch of sweetness and tartness. These muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them!
