Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Corn is delicious and easy to cook on a barbecue. Its husk gives it a natural protection and the barbecue gives the corn a smokiness that really suits it. Once cooked, all that is needed is a knob of butter and plenty of freshly ground black pepper.
4 ears of corn with husks on
4tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
First get your grill or barbecue going. Allow the coals or wood to be cooking maturely so the first aggressive heat has died down and you are left with a steady, strong, consistent heat. Brush the outer husk with a little olive oil and lay the corn on the grill. Cook for half an hour. Turn every 5 minutes or so to ensure the corn cooks evenly.
