Notes

Use fresh corn for the best flavor and texture. Soaking the husks prevents burning when grilling. Feel free to experiment with different seasonings for unique flavors. If you have leftovers, store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days or freeze off the kernels for use later. Present on a wooden platter and add garnishes for a festive look!
