Categories     side-dish

Time 2h10m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

12 ears fresh corn, unshucked
1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
3 limes, zest finely grated
1 bunch fresh chervil, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 pound queso fresco, finely grated
1/4 cup Ancho Chile Rub, recipe follows, or cayenne pepper
3 ancho chiles, seeded and hand-torn into pieces
1/4 cup chili powder
2 tablespoons ground coriander
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons sweet paprika
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Soak the corn in a large container of water for 1 hour. Prepare the grill. Put the soaked cobs on the hot grill and cook for 30 to 40 minutes, turning frequently. The corn is done when it feels soft when you press on it.
  • While the corn is grilling make the lime butter: In a small bowl add the butter, lime zest, chervil, and salt and pepper, to taste. Mix well and spread onto a large plate. Spread the queso fresco onto another plate.
  • Take the corn off the grill and carefully peel back the husks (it will be hot). Remove the corn silk and tie the husks in a knot so you can hold on to it like a handle. Roll in the lime butter and then roll in the queso fresco; sprinkle with the Ancho Chile Rub. Place on a large platter and serve immediately.
  • For the spice rub: Toast the ancho chile pieces over low heat in a dry skillet until fragrant, shaking the pan so they don't scorch. Put the chiles in spice grinder and pulse to a powder. Add the remaining ingredients and buzz again to combine.

GRILLED CORN ON THE COB WITH LIME-CAYENNE BUTTER

This is from an old issue of Fine Cooking. Not hard at all, and a wonderful variation on traditional summertime corn on the cob. I serve as side to Brazilian Burgers (Recipe #192429).

Categories     Low Protein

Time 15m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 ounces unsalted butter
1 lime, juice of
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
8 -10 ears corn

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a saucepan. Add the lime juice, salt, and cayenne. Stir. Keep warm.
  • Now the corn: Peel off all but one or two layers of the corn husk. Pull the remaining husks down, but not off, and remove as much silk as possible. (Don't fuss with it too much; any remaining silk is easily removed later during Step 5). Pull up the husks; it's okay if some kernels aren't completely covered.
  • Prepare a hot charcoal fire or heat a gas grill to high. Put the corn on the grate while the coals are still red-hot. (Cover a gas grill.).
  • Grill the corn, turning often, until the outer layer of husk is completely charred. Depending on your fire, this could take 5 to 10 minute Then, you can push the corn to a cooler spot on the grill if you're cooking other things, or remove from the heat completely and set aside.
  • Just before serving, peel off the husk and brush away the remaining silks. Brown the kernels on the grill briefly, turning the corn frequently to develop a roasty color and a little additional smoke flavor, about 1 minute (If the corn spends too long on the grill without the protection of the husk, the kernels will become dry and a little chewy.).
  • Brush the warm cayenne butter on the hot grilled corn and serve.
