Corn Roasting Instructions
click on any image for a larger view
| 1. First, find a farmer such as Malcolm
Beck to grow and harvest some wonderful sweet corn such as Sweet
G - 90 (Bicolor or yellow and white kerneled corn) or Silver Queen
(white corn). Local homeowners can purchase corn at Verstuyft
Farms (Loop 1604 & Interstate 35 South access road towards
Laredo) (Telephone: 210-622-3423) |
 |
| 2. A person can tell when to harvest
corn because the silks have turned completely brown. |
 |
| 3. Step 2 is to get a loving person (such
as Malcolm Beck, pictured) to put the sweet corn --- shuck and
all ---- onto a hot grill. |
 |
| 4. When the grill is full............ |
 |
| 5. Close the grill hood. |
 |
| 6. So people won't think you are a complete
vegetarian, cook some "cow burgers" as well. |
 |
| 7. After several minutes check the ears
to see if the outside shucks are scorched on the bottom. If so,
rotate the ears. |
 |
| 8.After both sides of the ears are scorched
......... |
 |
| 9. After several ears have been cut and
shucked, even tougher-than-tough organic farmers such as Malcolm
realize that a pot-holder, insulated glove helps when holding
and shucking that hot corn!! |
 |
| 10. After removing the hot-as-Hell shucks
and silks, a good bathe in real butter adds just the bit of nutrition
and flavor that is needed to make the corn-roasting experience
a REAL success and a WONDERFUL eating experience. |
