Artificial Silk or Art Silk or Faux Silk, as sometimes the same product is referred to in the textile industry, is a natural but man made fiber called Rayon or Viscose. Rayon is a manufactured regenerated cellulose fiber. It is made from purified cellulose â in other words wood pulp!
Close the grill and cook for about 15â20 minutes, turning every 5 minutes or so. Check the corn ready when the husks start to get kernel-shaped char marks and pull away from the tip. If the kernels don't feel tender when poked with a fork, it's fine to leave the corn on until the husk chars black.
Boiling sweet corn stops that conversion and helps retain the full flavor as well as the texture so the faster you get the corn to the cooking kettle, the better it will be. Exactly how long to boil sweet corn is often argued, but a shorter time allows for better flavor and texture. Once the ears of corn are husked or otherwise prepared, bring a large pot of water to a hearty boil, then slip the ears of corn into it. Wait until the water returns to a full boil, then time it for two minutes and remove the corn with tongs.
