Categories: Corn, Side Dish

Ingredients

  • 10 ears corn, husks and silk removed
  • 2/3 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • 5 garlic cloves, mashed
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 3/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Directions

  1. Cut 10 squares of foil 1 ½ times the size of the corn; place each ear of corn in the center of a piece of foil.

  2. In a bowl, stir together the parmesan, mayonnaise, parsley, garlic, sugar, lemon juice, and cayenne until it forms a thick paste.

  3. Rub about 2 tablespoons of the paste over each ear of corn, then seal the corn in the foil.

  4. Preheat oven to 400°; place corn on a baking sheet; bake for 10 minutes, turn the corn over, and bake for another 10 minutes; serve hot, in the foil.

  5. Note—after step 3, can store in zip-lock freezer bags in the refrigerator for up to 2 days or in the freezer for up to1 month; when ready to use, defrost the corn overnight in the refrigerator; then let come to room temperature for about 30 minutes, bake as directed.
