A method I have been using for over 30 years, you will never boil corn in just water again once you try this, this method produces a very tender and sweet corn on the cob, I promise! - do not add in any salt to the water as it will make the corn tough Ingredients:
6 -8 ears corn, husks and silk removed |
water |
1 cup milk |
1/4 cup whipping cream, unwhipped (or use 1-1/4 cups milk) |
1/3 cup sugar (can use more sugar) |
1/4 cup butter (optional, add to the water) |
Directions:
1. Fill a large stock pot half full with water (use a large enough pot to hold all the corn).
2. Add in the cream, milk, sugar and butter.
3. Bring to a boil, then add in the corn cobs.
4. Reduce heat to a simmer and allow corn to cook for 7-8 minutes or until just tender, depending on size of corn try not to over cook the corn as it will become tough.
5. Using long tongs remove and place on a plate or in a bowl, then cover with foil until ready to serve.
6. Serve with butter and salt to taste.
7. Delicious!
