Run back, husking as you go, and throw it into the water.<br /><br />I've been told the sugars in corn start converting to starches within fifteen minutes of picking. I can't say whether that's true, but I can say that there is a real difference between corn that is freshly-picked and corn that is a couple of hours old.jdegehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01495457567906071678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32278169577563552.post-47723041055164205632009-08-10T20:19:44.187-04:002009-08-10T20:19:44.187-04:00Oh that sounds good!

Soak them in water for at least an hour. I usually soak them for 2 to 3 hours to make sure the husks are plenty moist...this keeps them from burning too quickly.<br /><br />Cook them on the grill or over an open flame. If doing them on the grill, it needs to be very hot. Open flame is preferred. <br /><br />Cook them until the outside husks are nice and burnt, turning often. It usually takes about ten or fifteen minutes for them to cook completely, but it depends on the heat of your cooking source. In my opinion, you get much better results with an open flame.<br /><br />After the outside husks are burnt, pull them off the flame and let the cool for a few minutes. Have a trash can handy for the husks. Shuck them and season to taste right before eating.<br /><br />Basically, the corn kernels steam in their own juices. You get nice, crisp corn that is very flavorful.<br /><br />MMMMMM!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
