TIME: 15 minutes
ranch seasoning
2 tablespoons dried parsley
1 tablespoon dried minced onion
2 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1½ teaspoons dried dill
1½ teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon celery seed
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon coconut sugar
½ teaspoon paprika
¼ teaspoon black pepper
corn on the cob
At least 4 ears corn, in the husks (1 or more
per person)
Vegan butter (soy-free if necessary)
Chopped fresh parsley, optional
1. To make the ranch seasoning : Combine all the ingredients in a food processor or spice grinder.
Pulse a couple of times until it’s a coarse powder. Transfer to a jar or airtight container.
2. To make the corn on the cob : Peel back the husks of the corn without detaching them. Remove and
discard all the silk. Pull the husks back over the corn and place the ears in a large bowl or pot of cold
water. Soak for 15 minutes.
3. Heat the grill to medium-high or heat a grill pan on the stove over medium heat. Place the corn on the
grill and cook for 20 minutes, flipping once halfway through, or until the husks are slightly charred and
the corn is tender.
4. If you want pretty grill marks on the corn, peel back the husks, place the corn directly on the grill, and
cook for a couple of minutes on each side. Otherwise, just remove the corn from the grill.
5. Use a kitchen towel to pull back the husks. Tie them to form a handle. Spread butter over each ear and
season generously with ranch seasoning. Sprinkle with chopped parsley (if desired) and serve
immediately.
VARIATION
You can also roast the corn. Remove the husks when you remove the silk and skip the soaking. Place
each ear on a sheet of aluminum foil. Spread butter on the corn, then sprinkle generously with the ranch
seasoning. Wrap the aluminum tightly around the corn. Roast at 450°F for 15 to 20 minutes, until the
corn is tender.
TIP You will have leftover spice blend, but don’t worry—you can use this ranch seasoning just as you would any spice blend! Use it in
the marinade for the Grilled Veggie Kebabs , sprinkle on the Perfect Roasted Potatoes before they go in the oven, or top your Quick & Easy
Avocado Toast with it
