Sobre esta receta

¡Aprende cómo asar el MEJOR elote! Con esta receta de elote a la parrilla, lograrás un elote perfectamente tierno y sabroso con el punto justo de quemado. Prepara la cantidad de elote a la parrilla que desees, dejando un par de pulgadas alrededor de cada mazorca (mi parrilla puede caber hasta 8 a la vez).

Instrucciones

1. 1

   Preheat the Grill to ^[medium-high heat] (ideally about ![400°F]). You'll know it's ready when you can hold your hand about 4 to 5 inches above the grates for just 4 to 5 seconds without needing to pull back—obviously be careful doing this!

2. 2

   Using a pair of scissors, trim off the silks at the end of each cob, and trim away any leaves that are jutting sideways off the husk. Otherwise, they may catch fire in the Grill.

3. 3

   When the Grill is sufficiently heated, use Tongs to place each ear of Corn on the Cob on the Grill, running in the direction of the grates so they don't roll around. Leave a couple of inches around each one.

4. 4

   Close the Grill. Cook for 15 minutes. Use Tongs to rotate the Corn on the Cob by about one-third turn every 5 minutes before closing the Grill again. Transfer the hot Corn on the Cob to a large serving platter.

5. 5

   Turn the Grill to ^[high heat] (ideally about ![500°F], or hot enough that you can only hold your hands above the grates for 1 to 2 seconds). In the meantime, let the Corn on the Cob cool until it's safe to handle, about 5 minutes. Remove all of the husks and the silks from the cobs and discard those pieces (if the Corn on the Cob is still quite warm, wrap a clean tea towel around the base of the cob as you work).

6. 6

   Using Tongs, place the Corn on the Cob cobs back on the Grill. Close the Grill and cook for about 5 minutes, rotating the Corn on the Cob halfway to achieve some grill marks on each side. Remove the Corn on the Cob from the Grill, slather with Butter and sprinkle with salt (or use toppings of your choice), and serve.

Notes

Notas Cámbialo: Si prefieres elote al vapor sin marcas de parrilla, puedes asar el elote como se indica hasta el paso 4, pero gira el elote un cuarto de vuelta cada vez y añade 5 minutos adicionales de tiempo de cocción (total de 20 minutos). Hazlo sin lácteos/vegano: Elige una mantequilla vegana, como Miyoko's Creamery, o sé creativo con tus coberturas. Creo que el Pesto de Cilantro y Cáñamo sería agradable.
