Corn on the Cob is a delicious vegetable that it’s so simple and easy to make. This recipe was passed to me from my mom. For as long as I remember she used to make this corn on the cob for us, especially during the harvest time. It doesn’t take a long time to make and kids absolutely love it, and seems like can’t never get enough of it.
Ingredients you will need:
10 – corn on the cob
2 tbsp. – salt
water
Instructions:
1. Peel and wash each cob. Place corn on the cob into a large pot and fill with water ¾ of a pot.
2. Add salt.
3. Place the pot on top of the stove and bring it to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and let it boil for 25 minutes (the longer you boil the corn on the cob the drier the corn will be, so you can adjust cooking time to how you like your corn to be).
4. Drain the water.
5. Sat aside and let it cool for 15 minutes before serving (if you serving kids, cool a little longer, for about 30 minutes, as the corn will still be pretty warm). We like the corn plain (with no butter or extra salt added).
My kids love corn on the cob as you can see. Enjoy!

This is such a simple recipe, we love boiled corn too. We usually boil it for no more than 5-10 minutes. It really doesn’t need to boiled longer than that and tastes delicious! 🙂
Hmm… 10 min doesn’t seem like enough of cooking time. I’ll try it next time I make it again and see how we like it. My mom always boil it for that long. Also, it may depend on the quantity of the corn on the cobs your making. Thanks Katy 🙂
