Sweet corn season is one of the best parts of summer. Everyone has their favorite way to prepare it and their zeal is unparalleled. We favor grilling it or boiling it. To grill it, soak entire ear, husk and all, in water for a few minutes and place on a medium hot grill for 5 minutes or so, based on your grill. Some people wrap the husks in foil before grilling, but we don’t. It’s messy to peel back the blackened husk but so be it.
Alternately, we do husk it and drop the ears in a large pot of boiling water for a few minutes until it is tender enough for your liking. Serve with butter and salt and pepper or get fancy and sprinkle on dried herbs. But don’t mess with Mother Nature too much.
