Anyone on a salt-restricted diet should try this:

Soak the corn (in the husks) in plain old ordinary no-salt-added water. THEN:

Once it's grilled, season the corn with fresh lime juice and freshly ground black pepper!

You've got to try this to believe it! No oil needed to cut the acidity of the lime juice (as in the usual "3 parts oil/1 part juice or vinegar" vinaigrette ratio). It brings out the sweetness of the corn.

Use bottled water if you're on city water in anything you cook, btw. You'll be amazed at how much better the taste is without that nasty chlorine messin' up the flavor.

Bumped and bookmarked for the recipes.

I'm a gasser but what's better than smoke?
