Notes
There are several ways that you can cook the corn for this recipe. My favorite is to bring a big pot of water to a boil and then add a handful of sugar. This adds extra sweetness to the corn. Stir until it dissolves. Then add the corn and simmer until done, about 5 minutes. But you can also grill it or steam it in the microwave – here’s my recipe.
