HERBED CORN ON THE COB

Categories     Dairy     Herb     Vegetable     Side     Steam     Low Fat     Vegetarian     Quick & Easy     Low Cal     Low Sodium     Summer     Gourmet     Pescatarian     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added     Kosher

Yield Makes 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

12 ears of corn in the husk, stem ends trimmed
1 stick (1/2 cup) plus 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
36 sprigs fresh lemon thyme
Special Equipment
an 8- to 12-qt stockpot with a tight-fitting lid

Steps:

  • Shuck corn, leaving husks attached at base. Discard corn silk. Spread about 3/4 tablespoon butter over each cob, then lay 3 thyme sprigs against each cob, pressing them gently into butter. Pull husks back up over corn. Remove 3 pieces of husk and tear into 12 strips total. Tie top of each husk closed with a strip, then let stand 1 hour (for flavors to develop).
  • Bring 1 inch of water to a boil in pot (see cooks' note, below), then stand 4 to 6 ears of corn in pot (depending on size of pot), tied ends up, and steam, covered, moving outer ears to inside once with tongs, until crisp-tender, about 6 minutes. Steam remaining corn, in batches if necessary, in same manner, adding water as necessary. Serve with salt and additional butter on the side.

Tips:

  • For the best corn on the cob, choose fresh, young ears with tightly packed kernels and bright green husks.
  • Soak the corn in cold water for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help to prevent the kernels from drying out.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the corn and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the kernels are tender. Do not overcook the corn, or it will become tough.
  • Remove the corn from the water and drain it well.
  • Melt some butter in a saucepan. Add the corn and cook for a few minutes, stirring frequently. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add additional herbs and spices, such as garlic, thyme, or chili powder, for extra flavor.
  • Serve the corn on the cob immediately, with additional butter, salt, and pepper, if desired.

Conclusion:

Herb-buttered corn on the cob is a classic summer side dish that is easy to make and always a hit. With its sweet, juicy kernels and flavorful herb butter, it's a dish that everyone will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy way to enjoy fresh corn, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
