Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 4

5 cobs of corn (shucked/peeled)
1-2 Tbsp sugar (or salt)
unsalted butter (optional to serve)
Black pepper (freshly ground (optional))

Steps:

  • Place corn in a large soup/stock pot and fill it with enough water to cover the corn.
  • Bring water to a boil and add 2 Tbsp of sugar (1 Tbsp for a smaller pot and 2 for a huge one).
  • Cover, reduce heat to medium and boil 15 minutes. When time is up, sample few kernels of corn before turning off. "Older" corn may take a few more minutes to cook. Kernels should be crisp-tender.
  • Remove from heat and drain. Butter and pepper your corn if you like. Best to eat it fresh, or wrap it in foil and save it for later.
