Ingredients
Scale
6 ears of corn on the cob (peeled)
1–2 teaspoons sugar (optional)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Salt and black pepper to taste
Fresh dill (optional)
Instructions
Remove husks and silk from each ear of corn, ensuring they are clean.
Fill a large pot with water, enough to cover all ears, and bring it to a rolling boil. Optionally, add sugar and butter at this stage.
Carefully place the corn into the boiling water and reduce heat to medium. Cover and simmer for about 10–15 minutes until tender.
Using tongs, remove the corn from the water and let excess water drip off. Brush generously with melted butter and season with salt and pepper. Add fresh dill if desired.
