Why is the corn I cooked hard after cooking it twice for 40 minutes? What's wrong with cooking with a lid on it?
List of ingredients:

* 2 pieces of fruit corn

* Appropriate amount of clear water

Production steps:

1. Peel the fruit and corn, leaving a thin layer, and wash it for later use.

2. Put the corn into the pot, and add some water, the water surface is higher than the corn.

3. After the fire boils, turn to low heat and cook for 20 minutes.

4. Don't take out the corn immediately after turning off the fire, let it cool naturally for about 10 minutes before taking it out.

5. Finally, cut off the corn from the roots and enjoy it.

If your corn is still hard when cooked, it may be caused by the following reasons:

1. The variety of corn is not selected correctly, and some corn itself tastes hard, so this kind of corn will not soften even if it is cooked.

2. The cooking time is not enough. If you cook the corn for too short a time and the corn is not fully cooked, it will also lead to a hard taste. It is recommended to cook the corn for a long time to ensure that the corn is completely cooked.

3. When cooking corn, no salt is added. Adding salt can promote corn to absorb water and make it softer and more waxy. Try adding a little salt next time you cook corn.

I hope the above information can help you solve the problem. Please feel free to let me know if you have any other questions.
