Best Answer

If using fresh corn, peel the husk off the corn and remove any remaining silk by wetting a paper towel and rubbing it over the corn. Using a large pot and enough water to completely cover the corn, bring the water to a full boil. Carefully place the corn in the boiling water, cover the pot, and return to a boil. Once the water has returned to a full rolling boil, immediately remove the corn. The corn will be cooked to perfection. Roll the cob of corn on a stick of butter, add salt and pepper to taste.
