Footnotes

• Editor's Note
• The nutrition data for this recipe includes the full amount of the brine ingredients. The actual amount of the brine consumed will vary.
• Cook's Note
• Try not to soak corn longer than 8 hours. It becomes soft and very salty. I also love to use fresh ground sea salt, very tasty!
