Maggie Ruggiero

8 servings

Ingredients

1½ Tbsp finely chopped basil

½ tsp chopped thyme

¾ stick unsalted butter, softened

8 ears corn in husks

Flaky or coarse sea salt for sprinkling

Stir herbs into butter and let stand at room temperature while preparing corn.

Prepare grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (medium high for gas).

Pull husks back from corn, and cook, covered only if using a gas grill, turning frequently, until tender, 15 to 18 minutes.

Serve with basil butter and salt.
