Boiling corn in milk and butter brings out the natural sweetness of corn that water just can't do. Whether you're using fresh corn or looking to learn how to boil frozen corn, you'll get all of the tips and tricks.
07With the pot at a simmer and not a hard boil, cook the fresh corn for 7-9 minutes. At this time the corn will still have a little bit of crunch to it. If you prefer your corn even softer, feel free to cook a few minutes longer.
08When your corn is done cooking, turn off the heat and let it sit in the pot of hot water until ready to serve. We've found that it typically keeps for up to 30 minutes in a pot without getting soggy.
09You can either remove the corn with tongs and place it on a serving platter or drain the pot with a colander over the sink.
10Serve your corn with additional butter, salt, and pepper.
11To keep the individual ears of corn warmer, wrap them in aluminum foil.
