1
Boil the Corn
Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, add the ear of corn carefully to the pot.
2
Cook the Corn
Allow the corn to boil for about 7-10 minutes, or until the kernels are tender. You can test the doneness by piercing a kernel with a fork.
3
Remove and Drain
Using tongs, carefully remove the corn from the pot and let it drain in a colander or on a plate.
4
Add Butter
While the corn is still hot, spread the tablespoon of butter over the corn. Allow it to melt slightly.
5
Season
Sprinkle salt over the buttered corn to taste.
6
Serve
Serve the corn-on-the-cob immediately while hot, and enjoy!
