Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 ears Fresh corn on the cob
- 4 tablespoons Butter
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Shuck the corn, removing all the husks and silks, then rinse thoroughly under cold water.
Using a sharp knife, cut the kernels off each ear of corn into a large bowl. After removing the kernels, scrape the cobs with the back of the knife to release the corn milk into the bowl.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until it begins to foam.
Add the corn kernels and the corn milk to the skillet, stirring to coat in the melted butter.
Pour the heavy cream into the skillet, followed by the sugar, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together to combine.
Lower the heat to medium-low and let the corn mixture simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 15-20 minutes. The mixture should thicken slightly, and the corn should become tender and rich with flavor.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve hot as a side dish and enjoy!
