Boiled Corn on the Cob
What you need
- 2 corn cobs
- butter
Salt, pepper, water and oil don’t count. Mom always had those.
What you do
Boil the cobs in unsalted water for eight minutes, drain, and roll in butter and salt while still steaming.
How it feels to make
Rolling a hot cob in butter and salt is a summer evening in one action.
Mom wrote on the back
Don't salt the water. It toughens the kernels. Salt at the end.
