Simply Grilled Corn-on-the-Cob

This is as the name implies.... simple.  Really, if you have fresh corn that is in season... you don't need to add anything to it. Just enjoy the fresh sweet taste that nature provides! 

To make:  Preheat grill to med-low.  Trim ends of corn with a knife, and peel off some of the outer pieces of the husk, making sure not to expose the kernals.  Place corn on grill and cook slowly.  Rotate as needed-- atleast once.   The corn will steam inside the husks, and may turn golden in spots.   You will smell the browning husks when it is ready.  Enjoy!  Eat it plain or add some butter, salt & pepper.





If you want to doll it up, drizzel it with Crema Mexicana and then sprinkle it with chipotle chile powder, salt and fresh ground pepper.  Squeeze some lime over the top if desired.
