Baked corn on the cob
Hi friend! Today I am happy to share with you a recipe of baked corn on the cob topped with a tahina sauce. Hmm, Delicious!!!
What is the cob season?
Corn is one of the main foods in several of the world's diets. I remember when I was a little girl, I used to go to corn fields full of cobs to play with my amicə during the long summer days. Thinking back on it now, I think ə peasantsə who surely were not enthusiasticə about it. In short, corn cobs awaken so many good memories in me, even if I did get a few cuts caused by the very sharp corn leaves.
Cob season then comes towards the end of summer, so August-September. So if you want to eat them fresh, this the pre-autumn period. Of course, you can also find canned corn throughout the year.
How to bake these baked cobs?
There are so many ways to cook and consume baked corn on the cob. The method I used is baking with a marinade. I also decided to cut the cobs into quarters because I find it much easier to eat them that way. Since raw, fresh cobs are very tough, it is important that you use a very sharp knife during this step, being careful not to cut yourself.
The cobs must then be marinated and baked in the oven. This is a very simple process.
