Very delicious and easy to make, as DH said wow this is good but messy!! I was out of parmesan cheese, used old sharp white cheddar and left out the sugar. The corn was tender and delicious with a nice little bite. thanks for posting, I'll be making this again.

Before trying this recipe, I always boiled corn with butter, sugar and salt, it was always good...How boring was that! This recipe is easy and delicious, total game changer. Garlic, mayo and parm, yam! I added harissa seasoning instead of cayenne, after cooking sprinkled with sumac.

While the flavor is there if you can get i off the tin foil, I was disappointed that there was not more available. I used chili powder instead of the cayenne pepper.
