Corn ribs are one of the defining TikTok food trends of summer 2021, and it’s not difficult to see why. They’re super-delicious and really easy to make, but if you’re not sure how to do it on your own, these useful tips will get you there.

Cutting Technique

One thing that separates corn ribs from the regular corn on the cob is that they’re usually cut into halves or quarters. Cutting them into quarters is a much better option because they’ll curl better this way. It’s also important to be careful when cutting your cobs and make sure you’re using a quality knife with a wide blade and flat cutting edge.

Frying Choice

Air fryers experienced a huge boom in popularity this year and many people are using them to prepare corn ribs, but this is not the only option. You can also grill them for about 8 minutes on each side, or bake them for around 25 minutes at 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

Perfect Spices

The spices you’re using could make or break your corn ribs and that’s why it’s important to make the right choice. Cilantro is the most popular option, but you can also go with dill or parsley, or experiment with spices and toppings of your own choosing.
