Notes

This recipe is a classic and easy way to enjoy the sweet taste of corn during the summer. The butter and seasoning add a nice touch of flavor to the corn, and grilling it gives it a smoky taste and a little bit of char. You can also use other seasoning like chili powder, cayenne pepper, cumin or paprika to give it a little kick of flavor. You can also add some herbs like cilantro or basil for a different twist. It’s perfect to be served as a side dish with meat, fish or chicken, or even as a main dish if you add some toppings like cheese or sour cream.
