Notes
- Corn Preparation: Ensure that the corn ears are husked and trimmed before placing them in the air fryer. Removing the husk and silk allows for even cooking and prevents burning. You can also cut the corn ears in half or into smaller pieces to fit them better in the air fryer basket, especially if they are too long.
- Even Cooking: To achieve uniformly cooked corn on the cob, arrange the ears in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not overcrowded. Overcrowding can lead to uneven cooking, resulting in some parts being undercooked while others are overcooked. If needed, cook the corn in batches to ensure each ear receives adequate heat circulation.
- Flipping for Evenness: Flip the corn ears halfway through the cooking time to ensure that all sides are evenly cooked and caramelized. This helps to prevent any side from becoming too charred while allowing each side to develop a delicious golden-brown color and flavor. Use tongs to safely flip the corn ears, being mindful of the hot air fryer basket.
