Soon as she said "Hey y'all" I knew I was in the right place
Instantly liked
😂👍
True!!!!!!!! Lol
I knew as soon as I saw the bottle of "Dale's" on the counter

I felt like an idiot not knowing how to make something so simple like corn on the cob. Thank you for taking the time to make this video for people like me.
Why I’m here I’m in charge of bringing corn on the cob for Father’s Day
It's easy! It's brilliant!
Anything besides bodily functions is a skill. Don’t feel bad.
My grandparents were farmers in west Texas. They grew cotton and corn. They grew many other vegetables for themselves as well. Grandpa would come in and wash up for supper. He'd ask "when was the corn picked?" Because it "wasn't fit to eat if it's been picked more than two hours before being cooked." Omg...he was right! ( Not going to lie, it's fit to eat.. however, nothing beats eating a vegetable just picked. Before the sugars change.. Nothing beats fresh corn, and home churned butter.. ❤️
My son didn't have corn last night because I told him it would take hours. It's the following morning now. I looked for a recipe when I woke up. And seven minutes later we have fresh sweet soft corn! On behalf of all moms I just want to say a big THANK YOU!
I simply don't understand. You can eat the damn things raw, for crying out loud. They are delicious!. You just heat them so the butter melts.
Raw corn is hard to digest. Cooking breaks down the plant cell walls. I always cook a few minutes
I had the best corn on the cob of my life after following these simple instructions!! Only three minutes and they were perfect 👌🏼 So fresh, so tasty, so good!!! 🤤❤️
Glad it helped!
Could listen to that accent ALL DAY, EVERYDAY. I'm from New England and ain't nothin' like that 'round these parts...
Lol ya'll have your own accents!
Yep we were taught to boil it to death but I learned along time ago 3 or 4 minutes was enough good lesson for new cooks God bless love ya
I've been overcooking my corn on the cob my entire life!!!! This is such a life-changer!! My dog always tries to bite my arm thinking its corn on the cob, but now that I know the proper way to cook it, I will never have this problem again!!!! Thanks, with gratitude, Shelly 😍
Girl why does your dog think your arm is corn 😂
Took your advice and 4 minutes turned out perfect! My Mom said it tastes just like my great grandpa corn out of the garden. Best corn I have had thanks for the recipe.
Love the channel and have been a fan for about a year.
That's how I like my corn! Crunchy and sweet and not overcooked. Thank you for sharing!
I just boil the water. Turn it off and drop in the corn for 7 minutes.
I cooked my corn one time like & been hooked to this method since! I tell everyone about this method too. Thank you ma’am!
Just got 12 fresh ears this morning and had to watch this again to make sure I remembered correctly. This is the best way to cook it.
Tammi, we now always microwave the corn in the husks. It steams done and is not watery. Love it this way. Cutting end off after cooking allows silk to slide off with husks.
Can’t remember the last time I boiled corn- Have been cooking my corn in their husks in the Microwave for years now and it turns out perfect every time! Plus - keeps the house from getting so hot if you are cooking indoors!!! Don’t you just love how easy the silk comes off!! 👍👍
How long do you microwave it?
I microwave about three minutes for one ear and add a minute per ear. I normally won’t do more than 4 at a time.
Chay H. Thank you! I’ll try it!
Microwave is best. Silk and husks are easily removed after 3 min. For one ear. 4min for two ears.
I grow a huge patch of it every year.
What I like about corn on the cob most is I can eat it with both my teeth…an don’t get stuck between them like celery.
Y’all have a great day!😊
My "best" way is leave it in the husk, place in microwave for 3 mins. Cut off the large end , about 1 inch, then hold the small end and squeeze and the ear will slide out, leaving 99% of the silk behind. Works every time. If you like a little crunch, cook for 2 and 1/2 mins.
That is exactly the best way.
That's what I said...and the nutrients aren't boiled away...my grandson likes when I just pull the husk back and leave it attached so he can use it as a handle.
The microwave kills the nutrients
@@truthseeker12523 wrong check your facts
exactly right
Absolutely right. Corn is a little different today,we have lots of hybrids and super sweets. Just as important as cook time is harvesting at the correct time to get your corn at the top of its flavor profile. Proper storage until you process is another factor. I assume your corn used in the video today was bought or came from your freezer,since its early spring.
Not only does it lose nutrients but the longer you boil it the tougher it gets. When people try your method they will notice the wonderful difference right away. Thanks lady, good job.
The corn we had as a child needed longer cooking time than now! I'm almost 70.
I looked up your video for cooking times. The corn that I bought actually has instructions and you're spitting facts. I think I'll boil it for 6 minutes just to be naughty lol
Love corn on the cob. I like the way you butter it. Fighting with a butter knife and pat of butter is sooo hard. 🌽🌽. ❤️❤️
I really enjoy old fashioned field corn. It's not sweet but it makes the very best creamed corn you could ever eat. So good.
Well, Down South we do the same except the last 5 minutes ( per 5 ears ) of corn add 3 tablespoons of sugar , Makes the best corn ever !
Yeah I was always taught to add some sugar.
Yes sugar is a must
Reminds me of moms cooking. She always made perfect corn. Idk how long she boiled it, but it was always perfect. Miss those days. Thank you. Will subscribe for more southern recipes. God bless!
Thank you so much
I wrap my corn in a wet paper towel and microwave it 3 minutes per ear. Sometimes I wash and leave the husk on, wet it and microwave it 3-4 minutes per ear. Butter and salt it after cooking. Yum!
I was looking for a faster way to cook corn, having a late dinner and it came out perfect using this method…thanks! 🥰🌽
Wonderful!
I did it this way 4 times already and it has been great every time. Thanks
HELLO TAMMY...........my mama used to boil corn for half an hour . i grew up thinking , that was the way.........no wonder , it tasted washed out and the kernels were separating and shriveling.................LOL ..........UNTIL I TASTED AN EAR RAW , I realized , it did not have to be cooked so long . IN AND OUT.......GREAT TUTORIAL , THANK YOU , FOR SHARING........P.S. an old new england trick , is when you shuck the corn , the inner most light green leaves of the ears , that are glistening , those are thrown in with the boiling ears . it makes the corn even sweeter.............
Oh my goodness! I cooked corn for the very first time like an awesome southern cook, thanks to your video! My sister was beyond impressed, and her cookin’ is delicious.
I appreciate you, ma’am!!❤
That is awesome!
Thank you, I am trying this out now and look forward to eating some good corn on the cob❤
I’ve been boiling my corn my whole life. I just saw a video for microwaving it and thought no way but it turned out perfect. I’m blown away. And the best part is no shucking! You just pull the cob right out after it’s done!
I love fresh corn on the cob. Summertime favorite of mine. I've had it boiled, grilled and microwaved. Turns out good either way.
I boil mine 10 minutes. Tonight when I boil mine, 3 minutes it'll be. I am about to kiss 71 and I am glad I keep an open mind. I learn something new every day.
It's amazing how you go in the grocery store and these young people don't know diddly. I don't shame them, I just share what I know, even how I cook whatever. They seem to appreciate the knowledge.🤔
Tammy, I had my three minute boiled corn with my air fryed pork chop and air fryed zucchini, yellow squash and mushroom medley. Yum-mie! 😗
@@hettiecarries6450 Air fry is the only way I will ever do pork chops again.
bro my family was sooooooo impressed thank you!❤
I dare you to try this:
1. Leave the corn cobs in their husks
2. Throw on the Barbecue
3. Grill until the husks turn evenly black
4. Use gloves to shuck
5. Slather with butter, salt and peppah...and enjoy that roasted flavor!
I do that, nice smokey flavor !
@@triumphmanful Yeah it's amazing.
That’s pretty much how I do it! SOOOOOO easy to get the husk and silk off AFTER it’s cooked…. Like 100% easier than fighting with the tough green husk and the fussy silks. It’s like the silks just fall off…. I just let it cool for 2 minutes after removing from the grill and then don’t even need gloves, and it’s still very hot inside. Can do it the same way in husks for example if it’s raining out and you want to boil it inside… just add a minute or two of cooking time.
That’s how I do my corn when we BBQ. Only difference is, I soak it all in a sink full of clean cold water for like an hour first. Them husks & silks soak up that water which helps steam the corn first, then it’s nice & tender to start soaking up all that grill flavor! In the winter if I boil it, I add a little milk, sugar and salt to my water. Adds a little sweetness to it, because as everybody knows, you can’t get good sweet corn in the winter! So, ya gotta help it out a little. Just be careful! That milk may cause it to boil over so watch it close!
Corn on the grill is the way to go. I learned it from an Indian. A Cleveland Indian 🤣
Thank you so much my mom didn’t teach me how to cook anything lol so this is a huge help!!
same for me, 15 youngest and making dinner for my bros. My mom never taught me how to cook or do anything.
Planning on making corn tonight. I’m gonna use this method!
Love. This is my second time here cause I needed a refresher & new this was the best way to cook it!! 🌽
Just what I was looking for! Thank you! ♡ My mom always put a little sugar just in case.
NEVER NEVER NEVER. it is sweet without adding sugar.
I'm southern and the corn we get in the south is hog food. My wife is from Wisconsin and I traveled up there a few times with her. Went to her aunt's house and was served the biggest fullest and best tasting corn that I have ever eaten. It was so soft and sweet that you could eat it raw and I did.
Yes. Corn in the south is tough!
Thank you for taking your valuable time to demonstrate.
Awesome video, great job! I'm gonna boil my corn tonight for 3 minutes and see how it goes. Thank you for posting.
That's some beautiful corn & now you've made me want some. We have great corn here in MI too but not for a few more months. I'll definitely be boiling mine like that from now on.:)
Literally was hungry as heck everything was frozen! corn and butter were the fastest thing to make and I search how to make it. Glad I found y'all!
Great video! Thank you Tammy! Love ya, Betty from Alabama
I love corn on the cob, as a kid we had field corn and boiled it with sugar in the water, to make it sweeter.... And these days with sweet corn I boil it with some milk in the water.... Our Local store had them for 3 for .99 cents.... ( Green House corn I believe) Corn on the cob is Just Great.... Love it.
99¢ not .99¢.
I've done it with a little milk in the water not sure what it does but it was good. I'm from Michigan don't need to do much to our corn but only need to cook it a few minutes. ❤🙂🙏
OMG!!! OK, now my mouth is watering for corn on the cob!! I'm gonna take some out of my freezer. Not fresh, but it does taste like it. Thanks Tammy!!
Thank you! I love watching you and how you make me feel like being back home with momma ❤️
I wanted to say thank you. I did shat you said and it turned out great. I always thought you had to get the center part soft so you can use a corn holder. But i got that to go in also. Soooo much better thanks again
The correct way to cook corn on the cob is the way that you like it.
I wrap the cleaned corn on the cob in wax paper and twist the ends. I microwave it for 3 minutes. It’s perfect!
What beautiful bracelets you have on. Thanks for corn demo.
I love a little of the silks still on, they’re so sweet.
Glad you shared that cuz I've always overcooked mine
I knew how to make corn but for the heck of it decided to watch a tutorial and as soon as I heard your voice I knew I was in the right place
Soak it in the husks for 30 seconds then microwave for 4 minutes on high. It comes out great
Yikes
I do that all the time..it's great in the microwave
That's what I do. Cut the stalk end off first. Wear heavy waterproof gloves to remove ear.
@@michellebatzel5809 do not knock until you try it,,,,,I cook wifes for 3 min and i do my corn for 2 1/2 min
I have to make corn on the cob tomorrow, thanks for your help. Looks great!
thank you mam!!! this turned out amazing!!
This was the first video on cooking Corn on the cobb I watched! I am salavating as you walk us through this! Thanks! Now it's time to g to work! and then EAT Corn on the Cobb! Thanks!
Me too!
I add salt, pepper, and butter in the boiling water. Thanks for the video. It turned out really good.
Sounds great!
Butter, Lawrys season salt and pepper and wrap in foil and throw on grill.
Amen !
When grilling, just leave the husks on. The silks will fall off after it's cooked, and somehow the corn will taste buttered even without butter.
Takes a hellova lot more time than 4 minutes though. :D
I place it I. The microwave with the shuck on it and cook it fir 4 min. Let it set for a minute and it taste so fresh.
My mama taught me to put the ears in cold water, turn the burner on high and the corn was done the minute it came to a boil. 👍Hot and crispy and never tough and chewy.
I swear I was about to boil my corn for 3 hours and came to UA-cam to try a different way and ran across your post first and love 4 minutes and I’m full of corn right now as we speak it was delicious
Glad I could help
I have to ask, what is with this hours thing? I have been cooking my corn just long enough to get it hot for decades. I don't bother with a timer....corn if very resilient. I put it on when I'm almost ready to serve the meal, and take them out when I don't have 3 things coming out of the oven, off the stove, ice in the pitcher, etc.
I've always overboiled. Thank you for this. I just had 2 incredibly delicious corn on the cobs xxx
The sweet corn in Indiana is just BUSTING out of the fields right now. My husband and I stopped at a little country side honor system sweet corn wagon and got a dozen ears for $6.00. We shucked them yesterday, and put them in the fridge. Tonight I got them out to get room temp, then followed your directions to a T. DELICIOUS! No more mushy tasteless sweet corn for us! It was crispy, and crunchy and all the flavors of each kernel just BURST in your mouth instead of getting lost in the water by overboiling like we used to. Thank you for the video, this is how I will boil corn from now on. I'll forward your video to my daughters who also live in Indiana! We have a jingle song here....."There's Only Corn In Indiana!" lol Thanks again!
Use a colander that sits high and just steam the corn. Practice the steaming and adjusting the amount of time needed to cook
I hate to admit that I didn’t know how to cook corn on the cob. I always have trouble getting the silks off too. Thanks for sharing this video 🥰
Well im not eating it on the cobb but ive got a ton i put up in Aug. I grow my own. Blanch, cut, shrink wrap, freeze. Awesome.
Yummy! That's how long I cook it too. I either boil it or wrap it in a damp pater towel and microwave cook it for 4 minutes. It is perfect. Sigh... now I want some corn!
Thank you! 🙏❤🏴
Try a splash of milk in the boiling water. My cousin taught me that and it adds just a touch of flavor that is really good!
What's a splash size?
A put a teaspoon of sugar in.
I put mine on a rack in my pressure cooker for one minute. Fast, easy, yummy. To butter it, we keep a stick of butter exclusively for corn on the cob and we just roll it over the butter.
Thank you so much! It always bums me out when sweet corn gets boiled to death. So delicious when done right!
Just finished eating dinner with a batch cooked just as you showed, and perfection.
Thank you!
Awesome!
With a voice and accent like that she's welcome in my kitchen anyday...I might not want nothing but boiled water lol
57 years old and never knew this! Thank you!!
Nothing is better than fresh corn on the cob, but the best way to cook it is on the grill
Thank you,!! 3 minutes! God bless you,!
My brother is from Texas. He adds a little bit of milk to the water. Seems good.
same here have done that for years. Few weeks ago added a can or cream of chicken soup to it.
Thank you for sharing,I am making this with some Barbaque ribs and baked potatoes and Cole slaw 😋😋😋😋😋😋😋
THANK YOU!!! I tried it this way and my wife,kids and I loved the way the corn came out !! Delicious 😋
I used to watch the late
Justin Wilson Louisiana cooking show.
He had that strong southern accent.
In short. He put a cube of butter in the pot. I.v do that. The flavor goes deep in the cob.
By the time you get those cleaned I've eaten two from the micro. Best corn I've ever had.
The only thing my Mama did different is she put the pan on the stove to get hot then we went to the garden to pick it and shuck it. The fresher the better. I sure love your videos💜
You are amazing!!! 3 minutes and DONE~
Hello,
Thanks for the tip I love boiled corn I was boiling 10 min. Adding water and corn together now I will try your way..Blessings to you and family.
As soon as I heard the way she says "boil", I knew this would be the recipe to follow.
I love southern drawl....as well as their cooking 🍳😋
I always boiled it for eight minutes. No more. Thank you.
I boil it for 5 years
I boil it for 7 years
Thanks for this cause I'm just getting ready to make some corn and I don't know what I'm doing, lol!
Time between picking and boiling is absolutely important too. If it’s off the stalk over 12 hours throw it to the pigs. It’s all starch and no sugar after that. As for cooking? You are on the mark!
Your American accent just makes this the most perfect video!
When putting in to boil I add a couple spoons of sugar. The corn is super yummy made this way.
I do 4 mins with a gas stove... add a lil salt and sugar to the water after it comes to a boil. Yummy!!
The only thing that I would add to this is to butter a slice of bread SUPER heavily and roll the corn on it. Its less messy, and then you get to eat a buttery, corny slice of bread when you’re done. Idk if I grew up doing this because of the Canadian half of my family or the southern half, but its great, and its the way I grew up eating corn on the cob.
I just made them and your way is perfect and delicious! Thank you
Awesome!
I have not boiled an ear of corn for about 40 years. I stick mine in the microwave for 3 minutes for 1 or 2, in the husks, after 3 minutes it’s so easy to clean, that might take 10 seconds per ear. I’m going to go buy some tomorrow. Yum.
Just the best - thank you so much for kindly advise.
THANK YOU THANK YOU, I FOLLOWED YOUR STEPS AND FOR THE FIRST TIME MY CORNS WERE DELICIOUS AND SLAMMING ❤I LOVE YOU. I USE COOK MY CORNS FOR MORE THAN 30 MINUTES
Glad to hear!
Awesome thanks... from London UK
I love your videos! I grew up in a home where my mom never cooked on the stove, everything was always tv dinners or take out and your channel has really helped me learn how to cook for myself!
