Corn Grilling Tips from Rita Heikenfeld

•Remove the silk and smear some mayonnaise and Parmesan cheese on it. Grill as desired.

•Mix a little Cajun seasoning and garlic into the butter.

•Extra corn is delicious microwaved.

•If you have to remove the kernels from the cob, put the cob in the opening of an angel food pan – that will allow it to stand up and you can scrape off the kernels and they’ll fall into the pan.

•Saute fresh corn in a little butter with some frozen peas.

•You can roast corn in the oven with husks and silk still on. Wash the corn, lay on a cookie sheet and roast in a 350 degree oven for about 30 minutes. The silk pulls right off and you can use the husk as a handle.
