We don’t want to speak for everyone, but summertime is a time for eating lots and lots of corn. It is one of our favorite foods and we spend plenty of time preparing it for our families when the weather warms up. However, the process of husking corn can be annoying.

That’s why we are here to change the game. Whether you are making grilled corn or corn on the cob, this hack is here to save you a bunch of time this summer. When it comes to cooking to corn, the possibilities are essentially endless.

For best results, slice the tip off at around 1″ below the final row of kernels. From there, take the end that has not been cut yet. Hold each piece of corn, while squeezing and shaking it.
