Ingredients
8 ears fresh corn, unhusked
Mayonnaise
Grated Parmesan
Cayenne pepper
Lime wedges, for serving
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place the corn, in its husks, directly on the oven rack and roast for 20 minutes until the corn is soft when you press on it.
- To finish off the corn, peel down the husks, remove the corn silk, and tie the husks in a knot so you can hold on to it like a handle. Char the corn on a hot grill, over a gas flame, or under a broiler, until the kernels are slightly blackened all around and start popping, about 6 minutes. Rub the corn with mayonnaise, sprinkle with Parmesan and cayenne pepper so it's nicely coated. Serve with lime wedges.
