It's Elementary! Boiled Corn on The Cob

The smell of boiling corn on the cob is one of my favourite summer smells, it's just something so comforting and exciting about the scent.

I don't want to get all food-blogery with you and explain to you how to do it because it is not rocket science and I did not invent a special method.

I just remove the husk and the silk, wash it, then in a pot put half of the husks, then the cobs, then water, then husks again and cover it. That ensures plenty of flavour. I never salt the water, I just salt the corn after it is boiled.

I don't want to get into timing, because it depends so much on how young is the corn, how many cobs you put in the pot and how you like it. I boiled it for 20 minutes.

Final step: remove from pot + salt the corn + stuff your face with it like there is no other way!

Enjoy,
Mrs. G.
