When you add milk to the liquid in which you cook corn on the cob, it keeps the kernels from becoming bitter. Ingredients:
1 gallon water |
1 quart milk |
4 tablespoons butter |
2 tablespoons sugar |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional) |
12 ears fresh corn, shucked and silk removed |
butter or olive oil or soy sauce or maple syrup, for serving (optional) |
Directions:
1. Place the water, milk, butter, sugar, salt, and red pepper flakes in a large, heavy pot and bring to a rolling boil over high heat.
2. Add the corn, reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook until tender, about 5 to 8 minutes.
3. Remove the pot from the heat and let stand until needed.
4. Drain and serve hot, either plain or with the condiments of your choosing, such as oil, butter or maple syrup.
