Corn on the cob has been a beloved dish for centuries, with its origins tracing back to indigenous peoples in the Americas. This classic summer treat gained popularity in the 19th century and has since become a staple at barbecues, fairs, and family gatherings. Chefs and home cooks alike have put their own spin on this dish, from grilling it with smoky flavors to slathering it with butter and spices.
