Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Corn

    Start by husking the sweet corn. Remove the outer green husks and the silky threads from the ears of corn. Rinse them under cold water to remove any remaining silk.

  2. 2

    Boil the Corn

    Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, add the husked corn to the pot.

  3. 3

    Cook the Corn

    Boil the corn for about 5-7 minutes until tender. The corn should be bright yellow and cooked through but still crisp.

  4. 4

    Drain the Corn

    Carefully remove the corn from the boiling water using tongs and place it on a serving platter to drain.

  5. 5

    Add Butter and Season

    While the corn is still hot, spread the butter evenly over each ear of corn. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper according to your taste.

  6. 6

    Garnish

    Finish by sprinkling freshly chopped parsley over the corn for a pop of color and added flavor.
