friends a quick psa
eating corn on the cob?
hate the texture of eating it from the cob?
hate getting corn between your teeth?
or butter/seasoning on your face?
wish it could be easier and better somehow?
it can!!!
Make Corn Sheets™ !!
here's what you're gonna do:
you can use frozen or fresh corn on the cob, and you can cook it literally any way you want to. i like the easy method of tossing it in a pot of boiling water for an amount of time my heart determines (nothing bad has ever happened using this method so you can too! usually i just do it for like 20ish minutes i'd estimate?) but right now it's grill season so feel free to do that or whatever
okay your corn is cooked!! yayy
you can season it however you like. i'm a fan of butter because i grew up with it but there are lots of things you can put on it and this is entirely to your taste.
so now you're gonna stand him up on his wider end with a corn cob holder or a fork or whatever, and you're gonna use a knife (a real one, NOT serrated if possible, and sharpen it if you can for optimal results) and shear off the sheets off corn. cut pretty close to the cob—feel like you are too close? unlikely!! i usually end up with like 5 long sheets that break in half or thirds when they hit the plate
oh yes please do this on your plate it is MESSY lol
okay now enjoy your Corn Sheets™ they are the best corn :)
