풍미를 극대화하기 위해 옥수수를 굽는 가장 좋은 방법

2. Preparing Corn for Grilling

Before grilling, choose fresh, sweet corn with bright green husks and moist silk. Prepare your corn in one of the following ways:

• In the Husk: Keeps the kernels moist and adds a subtle smokiness.
• Husk Removed: Maximizes char and smoky flavor.
• Foil-Wrapped: Locks in flavor and prevents drying out.

The Can Option:

For those times there is no fresh corn, you can also used canned corn. Just make sure you pour out the excess juice before adding the corn to the flat cooktop. It's easy to grill the corn to perfection right from the can.

3. Grilling Corn in the Husk

Grilling corn in the husk steams the kernels while infusing them with a smoky aroma.

• Soak the corn in water for 15–30 minutes to prevent burning.
• Place the corn on the flat cooktop near the hotter center.
• Turn every 5 minutes for 15–20 minutes.

The result is tender, smoky corn with minimal effort. Peel back the husks and slather with butter before serving.

4. Grilling Corn Without the Husk

For a deeply charred flavor, remove the husks and grill the kernels directly on the Arteflame.

• Brush the corn with melted butter or oil for added flavor.
• Place it on the center grate or a hotter area of the flat cooktop.
• Rotate frequently to char the kernels evenly, about 8–10 minutes total.

This method creates caramelized, smoky kernels that are perfect for salsas or side dishes.

5. Foil-Wrapped Grilled Corn

Foil-wrapping locks in flavor and ensures the corn remains juicy.

• Spread butter, salt, and your choice of herbs or spices over the corn.
• Wrap each ear tightly in aluminum foil.
• Place on the flat cooktop in a medium-heat zone for 15–20 minutes, turning occasionally.

This technique is ideal for preserving the natural sweetness of the corn while infusing it with additional flavors.

6. Seasoning Ideas for Grilled Corn

Grilled corn is delicious with just butter and salt, but try these seasonings to elevate your dish:

• Mexican-Style Elote: Coat with mayonnaise, cotija cheese, chili powder, and lime juice.
• Herbed Butter: Blend softened butter with parsley, chives, and garlic.
• Spicy Honey Glaze: Brush with melted butter mixed with honey and cayenne.

7. Using the Arteflame Flat Griddle for Toppings

The Arteflame’s flat cooktop is perfect for preparing toppings to accompany your corn:

• Charred Peppers: Grill bell peppers and dice them as a colorful topping.
• Sautéed Onions: Cook thinly sliced onions in butter until caramelized.
• Crispy Bacon Bits: Fry bacon on the griddle and crumble over the corn.

8. Serving Grilled Corn

Grilled corn is a versatile side dish that pairs well with almost any meal. Serve it:

• As a standalone snack with seasoned butter.
• On the cob, topped with elote-style ingredients.
• Off the cob, as part of a corn salad or salsa.

Bonus Tips for Perfect Grilled Corn

• Butter is Key: Use butter instead of oil for richer flavor.
• Control the Heat: The Arteflame’s heat zones make it easy to cook the corn evenly.
• Rotate Often: Frequent turning prevents burning and ensures even cooking.
