  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
    • Remove the frozen corn from its bag and spread in one or more sheet pans in a single layer. Place the pans in the oven and roast for 10 minutes, or until the corn begins to develop a char.
      • 4 cup sweet corn, frozen (550 g)
    • Remove the pans from the oven and toss the corn to redistribute. Return the pans to the oven for another 5 minutes to develop more char.
      • Place a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.
        • 2 tbsp butter (32 g)
          (use compound butter if you have it)
      • Add the roasted corn to the melted butter and stir to coat.
        • Season with salt. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat.
          • ¼ tsp salt (1.5 g)
          • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (15 g)

        Notes

        Can I use fresh or canned corn instead of frozen?

        How do I get deeper char and avoid soggy kernels?

        How can I make this dairy-free or vegan?

        How should I store and reheat leftovers without losing the roast?
