*Grilled Corn Kernels

This should yield about 4 ½ cups of corn.  This is about the equivalent of 3-15 oz. cans of corn.

  1. Shuck 7 ears of corn. Brush them with olive oil.
  2. Grill the corn on a hot grill, turning regularly, until it is lightly charred, and the kernels are tender.
  3. Remove from the grill and allow to cool.
  4. Stand the ears up on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, cut the kernels from each ear by cutting toward the cutting board.
