Corn on the Cob with Chili-Lime Butter Recipe
Adapted from “The Ultimate Rotisserie Cookbook, by Diane Phillips (Harvard Common Press, 2002).
Corn on the cob is one of those perfect summer pleasures that we look forward to year after year. This version–which includes directions for grilling your corn, a great way to go–takes corn on the cob to new heights of taste pleasure with sweet, spicy, tangy Chili-Lime Butter.
And don’t stop there: we also include fabulous recipes for Jalapeno Butter with Cheese, and a tangy Sun-Dried Tomato Butter. Flavored butters work wonders, not only on corn, but on potatoes, rice, bread–just about anything that could use a little spicing up. These are the mouth-watering best!
You can boil your corn on the cob (for around 10 minutes), or try it grilled: see How To Grill Corn.
Then, for the butters:

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
1 tablespoon honey

Jalapeno Butter with Cheese
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
1 tablespoon green Tabasco sauce
2 tablespoons grated Pecorino-Romano cheese

Sun-Dried Tomato Butter
INGREDIENTS
