SUPER EASY, FAT-FREE GRILLED CORN-IN-THE-HUSK
I was looking for a recipe that did not require soaking the husks prior to grilling. This is a variation on the method I found on Simply Recipes website. Husks are placed directly on a screaming hot grill without the need to soak beforehand in water. The husk essentially steams the corn in its own moisture, resulting in crisp, smoky kernels with a natural corn flavor. This method will work best if you cook the corn as soon as possible after buying, preferably without refrigerating. If the corn has been refrigerated, allow it to come to room temperature before grilling. For those who prefer spicy flavors, add 1/4 tsp. chili powder and cayenne to the salt and pepper mixture before rubbing.

- Turn the corn occasionally, until the husks are charred on all sides, about 15 to 20 minutes. (Approximately 5 minutes on each side.).
- Remove corn from the grill. Let sit for 5 minutes.
- Using a hand towel, remove the silks and charred husks from the corn.
- Cover stem of corn with a piece of aluminum foil, making a handle for the corn.
- Squeeze lemon lemon wedge over the hot corn.
- Mix salt and pepper in a small bowl. Dip lemon wedge into spice mix and rub into corn.

GRILLED CORN IN HUSKS
If you're new to grilling corn in the husk, season the ears with butter, Parmesan cheese and parsley. It's especially good! Be sure to give the corn a long soak before putting it on the grill. Hot off the grate, the kernels are moist and tender with a wonderful, sweet flavor. -Nancy Zimmerman, Cape May Court House, New Jersey

Steps:
- Fill a large bowl or your largest pot with enough cold water to completely submerge the corn.
- Pull away the outermost layer of the husks. With scissors or kitchen shears, trim off the topmost part of the husks up to the cob, including the silk tassel. Place the ears in the water. Let sit for at least 10 minutes or up to 8 hours (this will keep the husks from burning).
- Heat a gas or charcoal grill to medium (about 350 to 400 degrees F).
- Remove the corn from the water and shake off excess. Place the corn on the grill, cover, then grill for 15 to 20 minutes, turning it every 5 minutes or so to ensure the corn cooks evenly. When the corn is done, the kernels should be tender when pierced with a thin, sharp knife.
- Meanwhile if making the Mexican corn, in a small bowl, melt the butter. Stir in the Parmesan, chili powder, chipotle chile powder, cumin, and salt. Zest the lime directly into the bowl, then cut the lime into wedges. If making classic corn, skip this step and butter and season the corn directly.
- Let the corn cool for at least 5 minutes. When cool enough to handle, peel back the husks and remove any stuck-on bits of silk (any remaining silk should come away easily, but if it is stubborn, it can be rubbed away with a kitchen towel).
- Brush the grilled corn all over with the Mexican butter; serve hot with a wedge of lime to squeeze over the top. Or for classic corn, butter the corn and season with salt and pepper as desired.

GRILLED CORN
You can grill corn with the husks on. You can strip the husks partly off, remove the silks and re-wrap the ears, then grill. You can soak the corn in cool water before grilling. Or blanch it in hot. I blanch, occasionally following the lead of the celebrity chef Bobby Flay, who adds a cup of milk to his blanching liquid. "I have no idea why I do it," he said. "It's like adding corks to the liquid when you're poaching octopus. Who knows if it works? But it's a foolproof way to get perfect corn." Serve with butter, as in this recipe, or dab with mayonnaise and sprinkle with cotija cheese.

Steps:
- Build a fire in your grill, leaving one side free of coals. When coals are covered with gray ash and the temperature is medium (you can hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 5 to 7 seconds), you are ready to cook. (For a gas grill, turn all burners to high, lower cover and heat for 15 minutes, then turn burners to medium.)
- Meanwhile, shuck the corn, removing both husks and silks.
- Fill a large pot halfway with water and set over high heat to come to a simmer. Add the milk, if using.
- Blanch the corn in the pot for about 3 minutes, then stack on a platter.
- Apply just a little butter to each ear of corn, then place on grill. Cook, turning often, until the corn is tender and some of the kernels are beginning to darken, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately with remaining butter and salt.

KITTENCAL'S MILK SOAKED GRILLED CORN IN HUSKS... DELICIOUS!
You are in for a real treat! grilling with the husks left on insures for tender moist flavorful corn, make certain to soak the corn in the water/milk mixture for the stated amount of time, if you like a little heat then add in a small amount of cayenne pepper to the butter mixture. *NOTE* to save some time you can prepare the corn earlier in the day, tie with string and refrigerate, just soak for stated time before grilling you may wrap the corn in foil after soaking if you wish but I prefer grilling in just the husks, I find it has more flavor, also see my recipe#121897 :)
