Steaming the basil under the husks adds lots of flavor to these fantastic ears. Lime makes their sweet taste pop even more. Ingredients:
6 large ears sweet corn in husks |
6 tablespoons butter, softened |
1/2 teaspoon dried basil |
1/4 teaspoon sugar |
dash salt |
dash garlic salt |
1 cup fresh basil leaves |
lime wedges |
Directions:
1. Carefully peel back corn husks to within 1 in. of bottoms; remove silk. In a small bowl, combine the butter, dried basil, sugar, salt and garlic salt; spread over corn. Place basil leaves over butter mixture. Rewrap corn in husks and secure with kitchen string. Place in a stockpot; cover with cold water. Soak for 20 minutes; drain.
2. Grill corn, covered, over medium heat for 25-30 minutes or until tender, turning often. Serve with lime wedges. Yield: 6 servings.
