Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Corn

    Start by husking the corn to remove the outer leaves and silk. Rinse the corn under cold water to remove any remaining silk and dirt.

  2. 2

    Boil Water

    In a large pot, fill with enough water to cover the corn. Add a pinch of salt to the water and bring it to a boil over high heat.

  3. 3

    Cook the Corn

    Once the water is boiling, carefully add the ears of corn to the pot. Cover with a lid and let it cook for about 5-7 minutes, until the corn is tender.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Butter Mixture

    While the corn is cooking, melt the stick of butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat and mix in the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once the corn is cooked, carefully remove it from the pot using tongs and let it cool slightly. Brush the butter mixture generously over the corn on the cob and serve immediately.
