Remove Silk from Corn on the Cob
from real simple.com:
Use the bristles of an unused toothbrush to dig out stray silk
threads stuck between the kernels so they don�t get caught in
your teeth during dinner. See? Brushing really does keep your
teeth clean!
from Hormel.com:
Remove corn silk by gently rubbing a damp paper towel from
top to bottom of the corn cob, the silk will attach to the damp
towel. This method protects the kernels from being damaged.
from howstuffworks.com:
Use a soft, dry brush to remove silk from the corn cob.
I had bought a silk brush to do this and it worked great,
only I cannot find it any more. It was small enough to fit
in the palm of my hand with short nylon bristles. I have
used the toothbrush methold too...forgot about that one.
Oooh...I found some links for corn silk brushes.
