Perfect Corn on the Cob

"All About Corn", Good Food Magazine, August 1986. Here is one method I use when I can't grill the corn.

• Ready In: 10 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 4  fresh  corn on the cob
•  butter
•  salt
•  fresh ground pepper
•  lemons (optional) or  lime juice (optional)

Directions

1. Husk and remove silk from ears of corn. Place in large pot and add just enough water to cover. Heat, covered, over high heat to boiling, then boil 2-3 minutes. Drain.
2. Serve hot with butter, salt, and freshly ground pepper. A squeeze of lemon or lime juice over buttered corn enhances its delicious taste as well.
