Corn On The Cob With Mint Feta Butter Food

CORN-ON-THE-COB WITH SEASONED BUTTERS

Steps:

• Heat gas grill on medium or charcoal grill until coals are ash white.
• Combine all ingredients for desired seasoned butter in bowl; mix well. Spread about 1 tablespoon seasoned butter evenly over each ear of corn. Wrap each ear of corn in double thickness heavy-duty aluminum foil; tightly seal top and sides.
• Place corn on grill directly over coals. Grill, turning every 5 minutes, 20-25 minutes or until corn is tender.

CORN ON THE COB WITH MINT-FETA BUTTER

Steps:

• 1. Stir together butter, feta, mint, and a rounded 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl.
• 2. Cook corn in a large pot of boiling water until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer with tongs to butter mixture and toss until well coated.
• 3. Note: Mint-feta butter can be made 2 days ahead and chilled.

GRILLED CORN WITH JALAPEñO-FETA BUTTER

Steps:

• To prepare the jalapeño-feta butter, in a small bowl, mash together the butter, jalapeño, feta, cilantro, garlic, lime or lemon juice, salt and coriander.
• Divide the butter equally onto six pieces of parchment paper large enough to wrap them snugly (6-inch squares should do it), form into logs, and wrap well, twisting the ends like candy wrappers. Chill for at least 2 hours and up to 3 days before using, or freeze for up to 3 months.
• Light the grill or heat the broiler, arranging the rack about 4 inches from the heat source. Brush corn lightly with oil. Grill until charred on all sides, 3 to 6 minutes total.
• Transfer corn to plates, and serve each ear with a log of jalapeño-feta butter for rubbing onto the ear.

CORN ON THE COB WITH CHILE-MINT BUTTER

Steps:

• 1. Combine the butter with the lime zest, mint, chile powder, garlic, paprika and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a bowl until mixed evenly. Spoon the butter onto the long side of an 8-inch-square piece of plastic wrap, leaving a bit of space at the edge and on the ends. Cover with the extra plastic and roll up into a log, twisting the ends as you go. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Keep in the refrigerator for up to a week, or in the freezer for 2 months.
• 2. Pour the milk and 4 cups water into a Dutch oven and add the sugar if desired. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.
• 3. Peel back the husks of the corn, keeping them attached, and remove all of the silks. Close the husks around the corn. Place in the liquid and cook until the kernels are tender, 10 to 15 minutes depending on the freshness of the corn. Open the husks and top each corn with pat of the chile butter. Serve hot.

MINT BUTTER RECIPE

Steps:

• Cream the ingredients together in a small bowl.
• Transfer it to the bowl or container you will be storing the butter in.
• Cover the herb butter and store in the refrigerator for 3 hours before use. The mint butter will keep for several days. If you don't have fresh mint on hand, dried mint can be used as a substitute. Use the same amount and taste it, adding more if you would like a stronger flavor.
