Chef's Tips

For a smoky flavor, soak corn on the cob in water for 30 minutes before grilling.

Add other vegetables like bell peppers or cucumber for extra crunch and flavor.

Garnish with sesame seeds or crushed peanuts for added texture.

Add a protein like grilled tofu or shrimp for a more substantial meal.
