CornOnTheCob

It’s mid-July and that means that corn on the cob is in season in my state! I’ve always loved the taste of delicious sweet corn as a side dish or snack on a summer evening!

Fresh corn on the cob can be a wonderful addition to any barbeque or a weeknight meal. It is delicious grilled, but my favorite method is so simple. When I want corn done right, I love to boil it. There’s no messy husk to attend to and the flavor is great!

Kevin and I enjoyed some corn on the cob this past weekend, using this method:

Ingredients
4 ears of corn, shucked
Water
Optional: Sea salt & butter
Equipment
Large pot
Forks or tongs
Instructions1. Shuck the Husks: Shuck your corn husks then rinse off the corn.2. Boil the Water: Heat a large pasta pot full of water to boil.3. Drop the Corn in the Water: Carefully drop in freshly shucked corn into the boiling water. Poke the ears a little bit so each side gets covered in water.

3. Cook the Corn: Cover the pot with a lid and lower heat to medium. Set a timer. For just softened corn kernels, cook for 4 minutes. If you like softer corn, cook for 6-8 minutes.

4. Serve the Corn: Serve corn immediately with butter and sea salt.

Enjoy!
