Instructions
Prepare the Maple Butter
In a bowl, mix the softened butter and maple syrup until smooth.
Pro tip: For an even richer flavor, use clarified butter.
Season the Butter
Add salt, pepper, and Espelette pepper to the maple butter mixture. Mix well.
Pro tip: Taste the mixture and adjust the seasoning to your preference.
Prepare the Corn
Preheat your grill to medium heat. Brush the ears of corn with olive oil.
Pro tip: Don't over-oil to avoid flames during cooking.
Grill the Corn
Place the ears of corn on the grill and cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning regularly.
Pro tip: The corn is ready when it is slightly charred and tender.
Apply the Butter
Remove the corn from the grill and generously brush it with the maple butter.
Pro tip: Use a kitchen brush for even application.
Add the Parmesan
Sprinkle the grated parmesan over the still-warm corn, followed by the chopped cilantro and lemon juice.
Pro tip: Serve immediately so the cheese melts slightly.
