Fresh corn on the cob (husks removed)

Butter (or olive oil for dairy-free)

Optional: Salt, pepper, herbs, or spices

👩‍🍳 3 Easy Cooking Methods

Boiling (Classic & Quick)

Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil.

Add shucked corn, cover, and cook 3-5 minutes.

Drain, slather with butter, and season.

2️⃣ Grilling (Smoky & Charred)

Preheat grill to medium-high.

Brush corn with melted butter (or oil).

Grill 10-12 mins, turning occasionally, until lightly charred.

3️⃣ Microwave (Fastest!)

Wrap unhusked corn in a damp paper towel.

Microwave 3-4 mins per ear.

Peel (carefully—it’s hot!), butter, and enjoy.

🔥 Pro Tips for the Best Corn

🔹 Buy fresh – Look for bright green husks and silky tassels.

🔹 Don’t overboil – 5 mins max to keep it crisp-tender.

🔹 Grill in husks – Soak first for 10 mins to prevent burning.

🔹 Infuse butter – Mix with garlic, chili powder, or herbs.
