Tip 01
Only have unshucked corn? Try microwaving the ears for a minute or two before shucking to make it easier.
Tip 02
Want a healthier alternative? Try substituting the sour cream with Greek yogurt.
Tip 03
What about for the kids? Cut the corn in half and stick kebabs skewers in each end or remove the corn from the cob and mix with the same sauce in a bowl to make it easier and less messy.
