1
Select Fresh Corn
Choose fresh, green corn husks that are tightly wrapped around the corn. The kernels should be plump and milky when you pierce them.
2
Shuck the Corn
Remove the husks and silk from each ear of corn. Rinse them under cool water to ensure they are clean.

3
Boil Water
In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a rolling boil over high heat.
4
Cook the Corn
Once the water is boiling, carefully add the shucked corn to the pot. Cover the pot and cook for 4-6 minutes, or until the corn is tender.
5
Drain the Corn
Using tongs, remove the corn from the pot and place it in a colander to drain excess water.

6
Add Toppings
Serve the corn hot, adding butter, salt, paprika, and Parmesan cheese as desired.
