We cook our corn in a hot cast iron skillet or grill for several reasons:

1. Tenderize it: The heat from the skillet or grill helps to soften the corn kernels, making them more enjoyable to eat.

2. Char it: Cooking corn in this way can give it a nice charred flavor. The high heat causes the sugars in the corn to caramelize, creating a slightly sweet, smoky flavor.

3. Brighten the color: The heat can also enhance the color of the corn, making it more visually appealing.

4. Break down enzymes: Cooking corn can help to break down some of the enzymes in it, making it easier to digest.
