Grilled Corn With Scallion Sauce
- Scallion Oil (The Sauce)
- 1 cup chopped scallions
- 1/4 cup cooking oil, something neutral or mild
- 2 pinches salt
- 1 pinch sugar
- Grilled Corn
- fresh corn
- In a small sauce pan, heat oil and scallions on medium heat until the scallions are softened but still green, ~3-5 minutes. You want to gently cook the scallions and infuse the oil.
- Turn off heat and stir in the salt and sugar. Transfer to a small heat safe bowl and set aside. rnThis should be enough oil for about 6-8 ears of corn, maybe more.
- Shuck the corn, removing most of the silk.
- Grill corn over medium direct heat. Turn regularly to insure even cooking and keep the corn from burning too black. Spots of char and browning is fine. You just don't want the entire ear to be black.
- Remove the corn to a large platter and slather the scallion oil on generously.
- Serve hot or warm with some cold drinks and lots of napkins.
