Instructions
Add water to a large saucepan until it is about half full of water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
Carefully drop the corn into the boiling water. Cover and allow the water to return to a boil. Remove cover and boil for 5 minutes, or until a corn kernel (when poked with a sharp knife) bursts.
Remove from heat and transfer corn to a cutting board. Pat dry with paper towels and stack on a serving plate. Spread 1 tablespoon of butter over each and serve!
Notes
Use tongs to lower the corn into the boiling water to avoid splashing and burning yourself. Also use tongs when removing the hot corn from the pot.
Once cooked, enjoy with a pat of butter straight from the cob (just like in summer!) or cut the corn kernels away from the cob and add to a salad or as a side to be eaten with a fork.
Cook time may vary, but start testing for tender corn kernels starting at 5 minutes.
The amount of corn you use depends on how much your pot will fit. Don't stack cobs!
Serve with additional butter for extra slathering, as desired.
