GRILLED CORN WITH SEASONED BUTTER (4 DIFFERENT KINDS OF BUTTER)

Steps:

• Prepare a fire in a covered grill.
• Working with 1 ear of corn at a time, carefully pull back the husks but leave them attached.
• Remove and discard the silk, then replace the husks around the ear.
• Soak the ears in cold water to cover for at least 20 minutes and then drain.
• To make the seasoned butter, in a small bowl, using a fork or a wooden spoon, beat the butter until soft.
• Mix in the ingredients of your choice until they are evenly distributed.
• Refrigerate if not using immediately.
• Carefully pull back the husks from each ear and spread the seasoned butter of your choice evenly over the kernels.
• Replace the husks.
• Place the corn on the grill rack, cover, open the vents, and grill until the husks are browned and the kernels are tender, about 15 minutes.

GRILLED CORN WITH GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Set up the grill for direct grilling and preheat to high.
• Strip back the corn husks, as you would peel a banana, exposing the kernels. Bring the husks together beneath the ear of corn to make a sort of handle and tie with string.
• Place the butter, parsley, and garlic in a mixing bowl and whisk or beat until smooth and creamy.
• Lightly brush the corn with a little of the butter and arrange on the grate, positioning the ears in such a way that the husks are away from the fire. Grill the corn until the kernels are handsomely browned on all sides, turning as needed, basting with the remaining butter, and most important, seasoning generously with salt and pepper. Serve at once and get ready for one of the most fabulous tastes in life.

Steps:

• Heat an outdoor grill or a stovetop grill to high. Peel back husks of corn, but do not remove. Remove all silk from corn and coat corn with cooking spray.

FLAVORED BUTTERS FOR CORN

Steps:

• Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil. Blanch the herbs; transfer to bowl of ice water to stop cooking. Squeeze excess water from herbs; mince with a sharp knife.

Transfer herb butter to plastic wrap, and refrigerate or freeze until needed.
• Divide the remaining pound of butter between two bowls. Add the chile powders to one bowl. Combine thoroughly with a rubber spatula; season to taste. Transfer to plastic wrap, and refrigerate or freeze until needed. Repeat with curry powder.

GRILLED CORN WITH SEASONED BUTTER

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium. Remove outer layers of husks from 8 ears corn. Grill corn, turning often, until kernels burst easily when pressed, 15 to 20 minutes (husks will be quite charred).
• Meanwhile, make Seasoned Butter: In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 cup melted butter and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, or a combination of 1/2 teaspoon paprika and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper.
• Peel back husks and silks from corn, brush with seasoned butter, and serve.

GRILLED CORN WITH JERK BUTTER

Steps:

• To make the butter, finely grate the ginger and squeeze out the excess juice. Put the flesh in a bowl with all the other butter ingredients, plus 1⁄2 tsp ground black pepper and 1 tsp salt, and mix well until even. Can be made ahead: save 2 tbsp at room temperature (this is for brushing over the corn as it cooks), then roll the rest into a sausage shape, wrap in cling film and chill. Slice into rounds before serving.
• Boil the corn for 5 mins until bright yellow but not yet cooked through; cool under cold water and drain well. If using the bacon, stretch each piece a little using the back of a knife, then tie around the middle of the corn, tucking in the ends. Can be prepared up to 1 day ahead and kept in the fridge.
• Heat the grill to as high as it will go, or get the barbecue ready. The coals should be white and glowing before you begin cooking. Grill or barbecue for 10 mins, turning often, until the corn is tender and golden, and the bacon crisp (if using). Brush with a little of the soft jerk butter as it cooks. Transfer to a dish, top with more of the butter and let it melt. Serve with napkins and a cold beer!

GRILLED CORN WITH HERB BUTTER

Steps:

• Prepare grill for medium-high heat. Mix butter, herbs, salt, pepper, and a pinch of cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Set herb butter aside.
• Brush corn with oil and grill, turning often, until it is tender and charred in spots, 5-8 minutes.
• Transfer corn to a large platter or bowl and spread with reserved herb butter, dividing evenly.
• DO AHEAD: Herb butter can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before spreading over grilled ears of corn.
