Very simple recipe. The only change I made was to milk the corn cobs after draining. I didn't want to pour that down the drain! I added the corn cob "milk" to the butter when serving. Very similar to fried corn, except it is "boiled"! Love corn anyway you make it....so 5 stars from me. Made for Zaar 123 Hits tag.

Simple is better. I cannot figure out why this tastes better than corn on the cob with butter, but it does. Maybe it's because you can scrape the corn milk into the pan. This recipe reminds me of http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Braised-Fingerling-Potato-Coins-350231 and Alice Water way of doing potatoes. Thanks Vicki
