Corn ribs were one of the biggest food trends on TikTok this spring, and they’re proving to be even more perfect for hot summer days. This viral craze is back and going stronger than ever and these three tips will help you embrace it.
Cutting Tips
The first step of making corn ribs is to find the perfect cutting technique. It’s recommended to cut your cob into quarters, not just halves, so the ribs could curl perfectly. It’s also a good idea to use a santoku knife or any other knife with a wide blade and flat cutting edge because cutting cobs vertically isn’t an easy task.

Right Spices
Your corn ribs will be just as tasty as the spices you use, and it’s up to you to pick the right ones. Cilantro is used as the most common addition, but it can also be replaced with dill or parsley.
Frying Methods
Most viral recipes recommend preparing corn ribs in your air fryer, for around 10 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit. If you don’t have an air fryer, baking your corn for 25 minutes at 375 degrees Fahrenheit or grilling for about 8 minutes on each side is also an option.
