Asian Grilled Corn
Description
The corn is husked and cooked over medium-high heat on a grill, turning regularly until evenly cooked and with some charred spots, which add depth to its flavor. The sauce, made by whisking together all ingredients including a mix of creamy and spicy elements, is brushed on the hot corn immediately after grilling to coat it in a flavorful glaze.
Additional sriracha can be drizzled for extra heat if desired. This method results in corn with a smoky, slightly sweet taste complemented by a creamy, spicy, and subtly sweet sauce that balances richness and piquancy.
The recipe is straightforward and great for outdoor grilling occasions, bringing an Asian flavor twist to a summer staple.
Sriracha, a common Asian chili-garlic sauce, is used to add moderate heat and can be found in most grocery stores, especially in the Asian foods section.

- 4-6 corn husked, ears
