And just put the cobs into the boiling water.
We don’t salt the water! You will need to do this about 5 minutes before the end of cooking, because… salt added early makes the grains tougher.
Instead of salt, add a little butter to the pan.
And cook the corn for about 20 minutes. You can get your bearings by tasting one or two grains to see if they are ready.
Just because the corn is cooked doesn’t mean it’s ready .
– Drain the water, cover the pan with a lid and wrap it with a towel. Let it sit for about twenty minutes until it steams. The grains will be very tender.
I did as Irina Mikhailovna advised.
I eagerly took out the cobs after half an hour, took the first sample, and…
… friends, this is fantastic!
The corn turned out so much better than the previous one (and I cooked from one batch, because I bought 10 ears at once) that I didn’t even believe that this could happen.
Try it and bon appetit.
