Devilled Corn
Ingredients
corn, as necessary
basting oil
1/4 C. olive oil
1/4 C. vegetable oil
1 Tbsp. sweet Hungarian paprika
1 pinch cayenne
1 tsp. whole cumin seeds, lightly crushed in a mortar and pestle
salt and pepper, as necessary
Cooking Instructions
Use only unhooked corn. Soak in water for at least 30 minutes. Prepare either a grill or preheat oven to 375 degrees. While the corn is soaking, whisk together all the basting ingredients. When the corn has soaked for 30 minutes, carefully peel back the husks and remove the silk. Do not remove the husks entirely. Using a pastry brush, brush the oil over the corn. Close up the husks and tie them closed. You need to ensure that the corn is well wrapped otherwise it will dry out as it grills. Place on grill and grill for 15 minutes, turning frequently. If you do not turn the corn, it will burn. Or, bake in the middle of the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Remove husks and serve immediately. Or let cool and refrigerate and serve as part of a salad buffet.
