Notes
How to char corn without a grill:
- Broil – safer option but you do have to make sure to check frequently. Once your corn cobs are mostly cooked, remove the corn husks from the cobs and turn on the broiler setting. Place the corn cobs back in the oven and broil for abut 2 minutes on each side.
- In a skillet – After the corn cobs have cooked in the oven, remove the husks and brush with olive oil. Place the corn cobs in a skillet over medium heat and roast on each side for 2-4 minutes. Once there starts to be some browning go the kernels, rotate the corn cob to char the other the other sides. There will be some popping coming from the corn kernels. It can be a surprise at first but it’s normal!
- Over an open flame – I would only recommend doing this if you have a lot of control over the flame or are confident charring over an open flame. Peel back the corn husks and remove. Carefully hold the corn cob over the flame, making sure your hand is not too close to the flame. There will also be some popping coming from the corn kernels with this method. Carefully rotate the cob to char the other sides.
