Tips:

  • Choose the right corn: Select fresh, young corn with tight husks and plump kernels. Avoid corn that has dried out or has brown or black spots.
  • Prepare the corn properly: Remove the husks and silks from the corn. If desired, you can also remove the kernels from the cob using a sharp knife.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like basil, cilantro, and parsley add a burst of flavor to grilled corn. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but they won't be as flavorful.
  • Don't overcook the corn: Grilled corn is best when it is cooked until it is tender but still slightly crisp. Overcooked corn will be tough and chewy.
  • Serve the corn immediately: Grilled corn is best enjoyed hot off the grill. You can serve it with butter, salt, and pepper, or with a variety of dipping sauces.

Conclusion:

Grilled corn with herbs is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for summer cookouts. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its sweet and smoky flavor, grilled corn is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
