A Simple Change

 

Sometimes a simple change can have big results. This recipe is a good example of that. Corn on the cob is one of the best things ever, but this recipe can make it even better.

Kittencal's Milk Boiled Corn on the Cob

Ingredients:

6-8 ears of corn, husks and silk removed
Water
1 cup milk
1/4 cup whipping cream (or use 1 1/4 cups milk)
1/3 cup sugar (or to taste)
1/4 cup butter (optional, add to water)

Directions:

Fill a large stock pot half full with water (use a large enough pot to hold all the corn).

Add in the milk, cream, sugar, and butter.

Bring to a boil, then add in the corn cobs.

Reduce heat to a simmer and allow corn to cook for 7-8 minutes or until just tender, depending on size of corn. Be careful not to overcook the corn, or it will become tough.

Using long tongs, remove and place corn cobs on a plate or in a bowl, then cover with foil under ready to serve.

Serve with salt and butter to taste.

Notes: This was really good. It just tasted richer and more buttery this way.
