Instructions
Step 1
Prepare corn cobs for boiling. Remove the leaves and tendrils, but do not discard them, but put them in a saucepan and cook with the corn. They will add a special flavor to the dish.
Step 2
Choose a wide and deep pot for cooking corn, for example, you can take a cast iron or a cauldron. Place corn leaves on the bottom of a saucepan and place peeled ears on top of them. Place the leaves on the sides of the crockery as well so that the corn does not come into contact with the sides.
Step 3
Cover the ears with leaves on top, put the corn "tendrils". Fill the corn with water so that it covers all the ears completely. Put the pot on fire. Bring the water to a boil and boil the corn over low heat. The duration of boiling corn depends on its type and can range from 20 minutes to 3 - 5 hours.
Step 4
Add water to the corn as it cooks, it is important that it is completely covered with water. Do not add salt to the water, otherwise the corn will turn out to be less tasty and juicy.
Step 5
Follow the cooking process - the water should boil. From time to time, check the dish for readiness: pick up the cob with a fork, separate a few grains and taste them. If they are juicy, soft, easy to chew, the dish is ready.
Step 6
Remove the prepared ears from the water, let the water drain, put them on skewers and rub with salt. You can also grease the corn with butter and sprinkle it with spices. Serve a hot dish.
Step 7
