In Greece a popular street food is grilled corn on the cob. But unlike here in the States, the husk is left on while the corn grills. Then it’s doused with a heavy portion of salt.
I found these ears of corn at a market along the side of the road in the Hamptons. They tasted so much fresher than the corn at the grocery in the city.
