Grilled Corn on the Cob
With 90-degree days, mosquito bites, and a constant craving for ice cream or sorbet, it must be summer! It can be hard to cook in summer because an already hot kitchen quickly becomes unbearable when the stove is on, so chef Robert Turner takes us out to the grill. Corn on the cob, which can actually be eaten raw, becomes even more sweet and delicious when grilled. Leave it in the husk to give it an aroma and flavor that it won’t get if the ears are cooked directly on the grill.
