Yeah I try not to get too much. But I let them cook a long time - I keep turning them.
I peel back one side for the soaking and then push it back over. The corn is totally-covered on all sides.
It’s now my ritual - the flame-up! LOL
Tells me when it’s ready and some part of it is caramelized.
My favorite lazy way to do corn these days - keep in mind I only eat one ear - is to clean and rinse with water, wrap up quickly in wax paper and nuke for 1 minute 10 seconds. It’s perfect for me.
