Oh, for the love of sweet corn
Oh, for the love of sweet corn Ottawa Citizen, Canada - 4 hours ago A favourite way of cooking fresh corn is grilling the cobs on the barbecue with the husk still on. Simply let the husk blacken for eight to 10 minutes, ...
Ok, I have been stubborn. Have tons of sweetcorn in the garden but it's just not ready yet! I've been stubborn about stopping at road-side market and buying any. What's with that?? I'm stopping today...

The sweet corn this year has been the best I've tasted in years! Don't know why, but it is so much more flavorful.

Love fresh sweet corn... could set down and make a meal off of it! The farm market across the creek from me has a mixed (yellow and white) sweet corn that's so sweet you can just eat it without cooking. One of my favorite ways to do corn on the grill is grill with husk off and brush with a 50/50 mix of butter and Dijon mustard while grilling.

The yellow/white kernel corn is called "Sugar Dot" out here. Not sure if it is the same that you are purchasing, but isn't it the best??!!
