How do you roast corn?
Sprinkle the kernels on a cookie sheet and put in the oven? Oil?

Thanks

sprinkle chilli powder and oil on the corn and them put them on a tray :)

Shamalicious do you think fire roasting the corn (on the cob) then removing would work..?? Love the recipe idea....Maybe for lunch today....Thanks for posting it!!

We do something like this at work. It's for a stuffed chicken dish. When I make the sauce, I saute corn in clarified butter, and just when it starts to caramelize, I add some minced shallots and continue to cook them until fragrant. Deglaze with a little white wine, add some heavy cream, bring to a boil, tighten with roux, then season with S&P.

It works great, I've used it in a salad. I'm using some to top a leftover baked potato for lunch. AllenOK, that sounds really good. Thx!

I am totally going to try this as well... Great idea! I love corn, so this is a natural extension to a lot of great dishes..

In fact, one of my favorite thing to do is add Sweet Corn to Chili.. I bet this sauce would be GREAT on top of Chili.. Sounds nasty, but tastes so good!

Thanks for sharing!

That sounds delicious. I love anything with corn in it.
