How to Cut Corn Off the Cob

Step 1

Place the tip of the corn cob into the hole in the middle of the pan. Hold the bottom of the corn cob securely with your non-cutting hand. (If using a baking sheet or dish, place a folded towel underneath to prevent slippage. Hold the corn vertically and rest the bottom right on the sheet.)

Step 2

Use a large chef’s knife to cut in a downward motion, letting the corn cobs kernels collect neatly into the pan.
