Notes
A Few Ways To Cook Corn...
- Grill the corn (on cob) on medium high heat for about 5 minutes turning constantly. I prefer to rub butter on first with a dash of salt and pepper.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the corn (on cob)for 3 to 5 minutes.
- Cut the corn cut off the cob and sau·té in butter or oil for 3 to 5 minutes.
- Keep the corn in the husk and microwave for 2-3 minutes. This steams the corn.
