The easiest method for cooking corn on the cob… roasting it in the oven! This method yields perfectly cooked and naturally sweet ears of corn! Other sources suggest leaving a layer of husk on or wrapping them in foil.  If they are not brown enough, turn the broiler on, but watch closely.

Ingredients:

• 6 ears of corn, husked
• softened butter (salted or unsalted or olive oil)
• kosher salt and black pepper

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°.
2. Line a baking sheet with a rim  with foil.
3. Rub softened butter/oil over each ear of corn.
4. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper.
5. Line ears of corn up on prepared baking sheet.
6. Bake for 35 – 40 minutes, turning halfway through.

 Serves: 6
