Do you mean the Carnation Evaporated milk? It's not condensed milk you're referring to, right? I'm going to try this recipe as soon as I get the right milk. Thanks for sharing.
I think we can all agree the very best sweet corn is the corn grown in your own garden. Something about nursing it seed to table just makes it taste better.
I usually do not reuse my corn water because it will have some unpleasant corn silks in it. Perhaps when I try this recipe I can strain them out. I wouldn't want to waste that liquid either.
Why do you hope ? Are you saying you hope he doesn’t waste the milk butter and western ? I’m from another country and I’m curious are you meaning I hope your not going to waste what the corn in ?
I'll be making this as soon as I get my hands on some sweet corn. I agree with you about Illinois sweet corn...absolutely the best! I don't know about using half as much butter on my sweet corn though. I looked it up and it appears that too much butter on your sweet corn isn't even a thing.
The best I've ever had was Wisconsin sweet corn, so tender, sweet, and small-kerneled & they cook for only 2 minutes. So good! (I prefer just a little no-salt butter, no additional salt.)
Confused on something. Isn't the corn kernel sealed closed on the cob? So while the hot water/milk will convert the starches in the kernel the milk/butter will not reach inside. Couldn't you get the same effect by just cooking corn normally and pouring a small amount of this mixture over top? It is just what is clinging to the surface you are tasting not anything cooked in the corn
My sweet corn is the best because it’s growing about 50’ from by stove (10’ from my grill). Can’t get closer farm to face hole than that. 😂 Thanks for sharing this recipe. I’ll be trying it soon. My corn is shoulder high right now.
Wow! This looks wonderful! I was taught to boil corn I water that had salt and sugar in it. It was always good, especially if it was corn season! Thanks for sharing! It was a great video, and I’m now subscribed! 🙋🏻♀️😎

Corn refers to the main cereal grown in the area. In the USA this is maize which become known as Indian Corn and then sweet corn. While "corn" is becoming synonymous with maize in English speaking countries now due to US tv etc, you still have signs of traditional meaning. Cornflower and cornbird in UK both are found in wheatfields not maize fields &the corn board refers to the market for cereal crops.
I imagine Illinois sweetcorn is OK, but Iowa sweetcorn can't be beaten! Head on out to the field just before lunch and pick 10 ears for lunch, shuck 'em and pop them in the pot! We staggered our plantings to get a longer season. But no, I have never seen it cooked like that before, either. We never sold it. We had enough town living relatives that did not have the bounty of a farm.
I'm absolutely all saliva now :D great job. I'm just concerning about the remaining milk bath. Do we just have to throw it away? I mean any chance for it to be reusable for that or sth else?
Since the butter is all fat and stays at the top of the liquid, all you have to do is make sure there is enough butter to cover the surface. Pull the corn out slowly to ensure complete coverage over the corn.
Connecticut corn is delicious too! We don;t call it "sweet corn". It all tastes sweet so why call it sweet. But the milk and butter sounds like a wonderful idea and I shall do that if I can obtain some fresh corn. We had some New Jersey corn in the stores a few weeks ago that was good, but our Ct corn usually doesn't appear until late July and through August.
Lots of people in the past used to eat field corn. Field corn isn't sweet at all and a common ingredient to make it more palatable was to add sugar to water. The addition of the "sweet" adjective might have helped as a distinction between field corn, and "sweet corn". As opposed to just corn.
If you have to do all that to make your corn taste great just go to any farm stand in Hadley MA and grab some fresh picked sweetcorn and steam it in it's husks. Sometimes it's TOO sweet for some.
You’re right. NJ Silver Queen is the best. It’s white, sweet and not chewy. We eat it raw or just steamed. We call that yellow & white corn, horse feed.
Looks like they coat with butter the same, that may be why theirs no difference in taste the half stick butter was almost gone when all corn was removed but the whole stick butter had about a half of stick still in the water, so I believe you're right cost and waste would be the difference. But goes to show more corn more butter.
"Nothing beats Illinois sweet corn." Of course! If you grow a particular variety of sweet corn it'll taste pretty much the same no matter where it's grown, so nobody beats Illinois sweet corn because everyone else's sweet corn is the same.
A beautiful thing!....wouldn't make any difference if you used 20 sticks of butter for corn, but by pulling it out of the pot...any liquid is going to wash off most of the butter, except what's in between the kernels, if with only 5 minutes cooking...though it would be incredible if corn was like a sponge!
In Jamaica we make this with fresh coconut milk, a whole uncut scotch bonnet pepper and scallion. Delicious.🇯🇲
Carnation canned milk and a whole stick of butter is better for a sweeter taste of your corn. I’ve been doing this for over 40yrs. It’s delicious 😋
Good to know I son excited to try it. ✌️
Grew up eating corn this way.
Do you mean the Carnation Evaporated milk? It's not condensed milk you're referring to, right? I'm going to try this recipe as soon as I get the right milk. Thanks for sharing.
Yes, carnation evaporated milk
Never heard of this before but worth a try thank you
That leftover milk/butter/water can possibly be used in mashed potatoes or maybe homemade Mac and cheese, squash casserole,etc…
Great idea Deborah.
In the winter time perhaps an oyster stew afternoon delight...
@@dioniciobenavidez5386 Absolutely!
Use it for chicken corn chowder

I bet you could take the leftover milk, butter mixture, and make a great pot of grits for breakfast in the morning.
HAVE MERCY!!
You beat me to it, I was thinking potato soup.
@@kathleenkendalljacksgrandm6902 - Someone else commented below, about making a corn chowder, or some cream soup. Great cooks think alike!
CF_1959 I just found it, we all think alike. ❤️
Or even a nice moist corn bread 🌽 🍞
What an idea. I am going to have to try that.
I've always used milk and butter when boiling corn, added with salt and pepper.
I do the same thing when I cut it off the cob .
Oh wow, I hope you are going to use all that milk and butter to make to make a chowder, corn, potatoe and seafood, dinner for tomorrow....
I love it when I check out things like this and get ideas like that from the comments!
I was thinking the same thing all the way through the video.
I usually do not reuse my corn water because it will have some unpleasant corn silks in it. Perhaps when I try this recipe I can strain them out. I wouldn't want to waste that liquid either.
Wow need the recepie for your chowder

I've cooked corn on the cob like this for years it's so good you don't even need to put butter on the cob before you eat it it's so sweet
We Grow great sweet corn up on the other side of Lake Erie in Canada that looks exactly the same and now I’m going to use this recipe
Thanks for sharing this video 👍🏻 your new friend ❤️stay safe.. have a nice time
I will be trying this recipe. Thank you, from Alabama
Looks delicious!
Sir, Thank you for this. Never made corn on the cob this way. It's delicious! Making it this way from now on. 🙂
Thanks, Randy! I love it! Half of a stick of butter is just as good. ~Diana
I'm sharing with my sister in CA your delicious recipe!
I was born and raised in Illinois and yes we do have the best corn on the cob.
Nope.
You can't beat Connecticut's fresh corn on the cob! We don;t even have to label it 'sweet" because we don't grow any "bitter" corn!

It gets in the husk. So when you put pressure on the husk and biting the corn, I would imagine this is where the flavor is really coming from.
can you freeze the corn water to use another time? So glad I saw this. Will fix that tomorrow with our memorial cookout. 🎉🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
My sweet corn is the best because it’s growing about 50’ from by stove (10’ from my grill). Can’t get closer farm to face hole than that. 😂

It usually only takes corn 10 mins in boiled water
I must try this out. Thanks for sharing. 🙏😉

Awesome sweet corn will keep recipe for sure. Try sometime soon🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽
This is a great experiment
Great recipe. I will try. I seen it done at KFC. Similar?
Thanks for showing this great recipe all hats off to you🤪💞
Looks delicious 😋 thank you !
In kenya we don't have money for butter,milk so water and salt is enough.
I have been doing this for awhile but I add a little sugar. Sooo Tasty.
I wonder if this can be done with kerneled corn.... for less tooth ripping
Yes,
* If it’s not sweet corn what might it be? Is there a sour or bitter corn?
Feed corn which is used for feeding livestock and converting to ethanol for gasoline

Decades ago, I shared a house with a guy who used milk (which I always thought was weird), but I don't recall whether he also added butter
My dad used milk, tad of sugar and water. Boil on low, then add the corn to a butter bath. Freaking delish.
Those plates are from BOLESŁAWIEC ?
Is six minutes enough time to tenderize the corn, I don’t want to over cook it or under cook it
More importantly what to use the left over butter and milk for?
Gonna try this tonight. BUT.....gonna Slop More Great butter on it after taking it from the pan!!!! Love Butter!! 😀😀😉😉👍👍👍❤❤
Nancy.....amen sister. Just start with....a whole package of butter and skip the water!!!! BAHAAAAAA 🤣🤣🙂🙂😂😂 love butter too!!❤❤❤
Gotta have salt with butter when eating corn on the cob!

Yep! Illinois!
That’s how my mom made corn. Seems so indulgent now.
How do I get Illinois sweet corn?
Move to Illinois, Chicago is a good place if you can dodge the bullets!

So smart
Thank you

OMG, this looks soooo good but it's November and there's no corn . I'll have to think about this all winter now lol
NH Butter sugar corn...oooomggggg
I need to try this :) Trick is.....have milk and corn at the same time LOL We don't usually keep milk
Lol 😆
stay connected
Mmmmm I can taste it
If you have to do all that to make your corn taste great just go to any farm stand in Hadley MA and grab some fresh picked sweetcorn and steam it in it's husks. Sometimes it's TOO sweet for some.
Don't know if I want to waste a stick of butter and a cup of milk to have to throw it away after the corn is done.
This is just for fun if you want to try it.
Looks like most of the butter is left behind in the pots. Even the one with 1/2 stick of butter. So i would say use 1/4 stick.
Illinios Farm stand 6 ears for $ 3 bucks. 12 for $ 5. Is bar none, one of my favorite times of year.
4th of July weekend the price of sweet corn drops to 4/$1 at some farm stands in Hadley MA; ( then it jumps back up to 2/$1)
You’re right. NJ Silver Queen is the best. It’s white, sweet and not chewy. We eat it raw or just steamed. We call that yellow & white corn, horse feed.
I’ll try this on our Silver Queen tho.
Looks like they coat with butter the same, that may be why theirs no difference in taste the half stick butter was almost gone when all corn was removed but the whole stick butter had about a half of stick still in the water, so I believe you're right cost and waste would be the difference. But goes to show more corn more butter.
Wonder what happens if I add a table spoon of sugar?
Uum
You'll ruin the recipe! Do you need more cavities than you already have?
This looks so good, I will be cooking my sweet corn 🌽 this way from now on .
"Nothing beats Illinois sweet corn." Of course! If you grow a particular variety of sweet corn it'll taste pretty much the same no matter where it's grown, so nobody beats Illinois sweet corn because everyone else's sweet corn is the same.
Indiana is better.
@@charleshodgdon6168 So once I walk across the street to the Illinois side the corn isn't as good? Hmm! Thanks for the tip.

Is this GMO corn?
Peaches and Cream Corn from Chilliwack BC.....
We always cooked our corn 🌽 that way but without the water 💧
You mean there's any other way? I've known this for all of my 81 years-BUT!
is your corn GMO?
If its in america ITS.GMO IF U HAVE ANY WITHIN 25.MILES
..THEY SAY 10 MILES...BUT ITS 25 MILES
If your corn is about 3” long it maybe GMO free. Corn has been genetically modified for ever.
A beautiful thing!....wouldn't make any difference if you used 20 sticks of butter for corn, but by pulling it out of the pot...any liquid is going to wash off most of the butter, except what's in between the kernels, if with only 5 minutes cooking...though it would be incredible if corn was like a sponge!
6 minutes cooking.
3 minute rest.
So what do you do with the milk butter bath? Seems you could use it for something wonderful. God forbid you should throw it out!
Strain and use for soup or reduce a sauce for crab cakes.
Yummy!!!!
Thank you.my wife just left me and now I can make her corn for my girls.... When I have them all the time because she's a crazy B! Lol but for real...
Nah, I heard New Mexico and Alaskan Corn is the sweetest!! 😉
Long Island sweet corn is pretty good
Add a jar of Honey too
