THE BEST WAY TO MAKE CORN ON THE COB

May 2, 2014

This is how I make my corn on the cob. It is the best tasting, and the fastest way I know how to do it. I have to show love to grilled corn, but for other apartment dwellers, people short on time, or anyone in bad weather, this is what is up. And a tip – did you know? Leave corn husks on corn until just before cooking. (This keeps the corn the freshest!) Okay, and again. Caveat to grilled corn because I love it. But I would say this is the best INDOOR way to make it boiled. Hm, I keep qualifying don’t I? It is just good this way, do it!!

    I don’t like corn that is the least bit over ripe but my husband bought some and it was very ripe, tried this and it was some of the best corn I’ve had, thank you for this recipe!!

    do you think the milk is absolutely necessary? also, i bet having these put under the broiler for a little bit would be delicious :)
