Grilled Asian Corn On The Cob With Garlic Soy Glaze Food

JAPANESE GRILLED CORN ON THE COB (YAKI TOMOROKOSHI)

Steps:

• Preheat broiler with rack in the center of the oven.
• First prepare the Glaze. Mix all of ingredients for the glaze in a small saucepan and place over medium heat. Simmer and stir until sugar is melted. Remove from the stove and set aside.
• Line a small baking sheet pan with aluminum foil (the glaze gets sticky). Place corn on the lined baking sheet and rub with olive oil and sea salt. Place baking sheet under the broiler for about 8 minutes (every broiler is different so you must keep an eye on it). Check to see if corn is slightly browning on a few kernels and turn to the other side. Continue to watch corn and roll making sure all sides are getting slightly golden brown, total time about 15-20 minutes. After corn turns slightly brown brush the top side of the corn with the glaze. After about two minutes roll corn to the other side and brush with more glaze. Continue to do this about three or four more times as you roll the corn every 1-2 minutes each time making sure the glaze is caramelized and the corn is completely covered in the glaze. Make sure the glaze doesn't burn.
• Remove the corn from the oven, sprinkle with Shichimi Togarashi (if using) and serve warm.

HOISIN-GLAZED CORN ON THE COB

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the hoisin, butter, honey, soy, ginger, sesame oil and garlic.
• Grill the corn, turning every 3 to 4 minutes, until it starts to char, about 12 minutes. Baste with the hoisin mixture and continue to grill until the glaze gets sticky, another 3 to 4 minutes. Baste again before removing from the grill.
• Sprinkle each ear with sesame seeds and chives.

GARLIC LOVER'S GRILLED CORN

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat.
• Lay two ears of corn each on two separate pieces of aluminum foil large enough to wrap the ears completely. Place 1 teaspoon butter, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 2 teaspoons minced garlic on top of each bundle of corn. Season with salt and pepper. Tightly wrap the corn in the foil.
• Cook on preheated grill for 10 minutes; turn. Continue to cook another 10 to 14 minutes.

GRILLED CORN WITH SESAME-SOY BUTTER

Steps:

• Make the sesame soy butter: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Whisk in the sesame oil, soy sauce, mirin and several grinds of pepper until well-blended. Remove from the heat and reserve.
• Set up your grill for direct grilling and heat to high (450 to 600 degrees). Brush or scrape the grill grate clean and oil it with a tightly folded paper towel dipped in oil and drawn across the grate with tongs. Fold a 12-by-18-inch sheet of aluminum foil in thirds like a business letter to make a grill shield.
• Meanwhile, cut the tapered end off one ear of corn. Pull the husk back over the stem end as if peeling a banana to expose the kernels. Rotate the corn as you peel it and gather the husks together below the stem. Tightly tie the husks with butcher's string or a strip of corn husk to form a handle. Discard the silks. Repeat with the remaining corn. Breathe a sigh of relief: The hard part is over. Brush each ear of corn on all sides with some of the sesame-soy butter.
• Arrange the corn on the grate, sliding the folded aluminum foil grill shield under the husks to keep them from burning. Grill the corn, turning the ears so they roast evenly and basting the corn with some sesame-soy butter, until darkly browned all over, about 3 minutes per side. (If you are using a gas grill, close the cover while grilling.)
• Transfer the corn to a platter. Brush one final time with any remaining sesame-soy butter. Sprinkle the corn on all sides with sesame seeds and chives.

SOY-GLAZED CORN ON THE COB

Steps:

• Whisk soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, red wine vinegar, garlic powder, sriracha hot sauce, and ground black pepper together in a bowl until sauce is smooth.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Place corn on the grill and brush with the sauce; cook for 5 minutes. Turn corn and brush the other side with sauce and cook until tender, about 5 minutes more.

GRILLED CORN WITH SOY-HONEY GLAZE

Steps:

• Mix the honey and the soy sauce together in a 10-inch skillet. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until syrupy and reduced to about 1/2 cup, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and set aside.
• Grill the corn over a medium-hot fire, turning the ears every 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, until the dark outlines of the kernels show through the husk and the husk is charred and beginning to peel away from the tip to expose some kernels, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Transfer the corn to a platter. Carefully remove and discard the charred husks and silk. Using tongs, take each ear of corn and roll it in the soy mixture. Return the glazed corn to the grill for an additional 1 to 2 minutes, turning once. Serve immediately.

GRILLED CORN WITH SWEET-SAVORY ASIAN GLAZE

Steps:

• Stir first 4 ingredients in small bowl until sugar dissolves. Melt butter with 2 tablespoons oil in small saucepan over medium heat. Add fish sauce mixture and green onions and simmer until sauce begins to thicken, about 2 minutes.
• Do ahead: Butter sauce can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
• Preheat barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush corn with oil. Grill corn until tender and charred in spots, about 13 minutes. Brush corn generously with butter sauce and serve, passing remaining sauce separately.
• *Fish sauce is a versatile ingredient. Try it (1) mixed with garlic and cilantro as a marinade for grilled chicken; (2) in barbecue sauce for ribs; (3) in a salad of slivered green apples and chopped cilantro; and (4) in a compound butter with cayenne and shallots for grilled fish. It is available in the Asian foods section of many supermarkets and at Asian markets.
