Why not!

If you have no other option (e.g. grill or similar), that is. I haven’t eaten corn on the cob for years. So the other day when my grandpa brought me a few of them, I momentary recalled those old times -a decade and a half ago, more or less- when I was a child and we would roast home-grown corncobs over hot embers… Such things are hard to forget! And this year, after such a long time, my grandpa has planted corn -for some reason- again. I felt excited about roasting it, and a little less excited about cleaning the vitroceramic afterwards… but O.K., I did it for the sake of good ol’ times – and here I have photo-documented the procedure of the roasting for you!

First make sure the vitro is clean from any cleansing agents! Turn on one of the rings and place two (or more) corn cobs on top of it. When you notice the smoke, I recommend you lower the heat a bit...

... or else, the corn can get burnt too much. I used 2 wooden spatulas to turn them around. Don't get scared of cracking sound while it roasts. The roasting takes like 15-20 minutes.

Better eat while still warm!

The smell of this roasted corn reminded me of autumn! It’s September already and while I don’t want summer just to leave yet, I do look very forward to hearty soups and stews, prepared on a chilly day. Not to mention all those root vegetables that will start appearing in the markets soon…
