  • Drain the corn and let it cool slightly. Once the corn is cooked, remove it from the pot and drain the water. Let the corn cool slightly so that it is easy to handle.
  • Brush the corn with melted butter and sprinkle with tarragon. Brush each ear of corn with melted butter and then sprinkle with tarragon. You can also add other seasonings, such as salt, pepper, or garlic powder, to taste.
