About a week ago, I posted a little guide on how to grill corn on the cob, which is my favorite way to cook corn. It is not, however, the only way to cook corn. The website How to Cook Corn on the Cob has photo guides to grilling, steaming, boiling and microwaving corn. It might not be headline news, since you have probably used at least one of the methods before, but all four are great guides for those who are new to corn cookery or simply want to give another method a try.
One other useful tip -although not necessarily for the health conscious - is to roll the hot corn along the long side of a stick of butter, which is the easiest and most thorough way to cover the corn before sprinkling it with salt, pepper and whatever other spices you like to use. Compound butter is also a great way to dress up corn.
