Wow...whodda thunk brown butter and lime would be so yummy on corn on the cob?!? We just planted a lime tree and now will have another use for the limes, besides margaritas!Unfortunately, fresh corn was not available at the store so had to use frozen cobs and it was still delicious! I can't wait to try this on fresh corn.

OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! I will not have corn on the cob any other way from this point forward. No really. I'm not joking. This cannot get any simpler or any better. Thank you so much MomOnTheGo, for sharing!!!! I have to go buy some more corn on the cob now...

I absolutely loved the yummy brown butter and lime flavor and will make my corn this way again. My sweetheart didn't love it quite as much, but it's easy enough to just make mine this fabulous.
