Ingredients:

  • 4 ears of fresh corn on the cob (about 1 kg)
  • 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter (30 g), melted
  • Salt to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Optional toppings: Grated Parmesan cheese, Fresh herbs (like parsley, cilantro, or chives)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare the corn: Husk the corn and remove all silk. Rinse the ears under cold water.
  3. Optional: Wrap each ear of corn in aluminum foil for steaming.
  4. Place corn on a baking sheet, or directly on the oven rack if unwrapped.
  5. Brush with melted butter and season with salt and pepper.
  6. Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes; turn occasionally. Look for a slight charring on the kernels; they should be tender when pierced with a knife.
  7. Serve hot with additional butter and toppings as desired.
