Perfect Corn On The Cobb


I got this recipe online some time ago and I think it was called Family
Favorites.. So whoever posted this picture and recipe I give credit to you.

Water (as much as you need to cover your corn)
1/3 - 1/2 c. Sugar (or just a good handful)
Corn on the cob (peeled and ready to go)
Butter
Salt & pepper - to taste

Fill a large stockpot about halfway with cold water, add sugar and bring to a boil (don't add salt to the water.. Salt will toughen the corn, add the salt AFTER it is already cooked). When water is boiling, add corn. Cover and boil for about 5 minutes (don't over-boil -- start timing from the time you drop the corn in.. You don't need to bring it back to a full boil before you start timing it). Remove from heat and let sit covered for another few minutes. Remove from water with tongs and serve with butter, salt and pepper.
