Sweet Corn

Total time: 15 minutes
     Nothing says summer like corn on the cob.  We've tried roasting it and boiling it... and if I ever find a method that is better than plain old steaming I'll add it to the recipes....

 Ingredients:

• 4 - 6 ears sweet corn, 572gr, 20oz
• Butter, 38gr, 1.4oz
• salt
• pepper

 Instructions:

• Shuck corn.
• Bring an inch of water to boil in a large kettle with a steamer rack.  Add corn, cover and steam 4 - 5 minutes (depends on how much corn you put in) or until done.
• Take 1 ear, slather with butter, salt and pepper.
• Eat.  Repeat. 
• Happy summer!
