Equipment

  • Conventional Oven
  • Baking Sheet

Ingredients
  

  • 1 to 8 ears of corn (with husk)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 ℉
  • While oven is heating, you can trim off narrow tips of husks and silks using a sharp knife or scissors. These dry narrow tips sometimes burn and create smoke in your oven. Note that sometimes the corn you buy has already been trimmed this way at the store
  • Arrange ears of corn on baking sheet and bake at 375 ℉ for 30 minutes. When cooked, kernels should look plump and shiny. Some kernels may be slightly browned
  • Remove from oven and allow corn to cool for at least a few minutes before removing husks and silks. The cooling is mostly to keep you from getting steam burns while peeling
  • If you don't need to serve corn right away, you can store it in the fridge while still unhusked to retain moisture and flavor
