Corn is a delicious food that we eat a lot in our daily life. There are many ways to make corn, but the best way is to directly boil corn with water. I like to eat boiled corn since I was a child, and I have been eating it for more than thirty years now. I always thought that the corn I cooked was not as delicious as the corn I sold. Every time I buy it, it is delicious and refreshing, but the corn I cooked is not so fragrant. I tried many varieties of corn and the taste was still the same. Later, I learned that two ingredients should be added when cooking, so that the cooked corn will be soft and sweet.

When cooking corn, you must not cook it directly with clear water, so that the cooked corn is clear and moist, and the taste of the corn will not be stimulated. It tastes harder and less waxy. You must add two condiments, one is baking soda and the other is salt. Today we will talk about the detailed cooking method of corn in detail. If cooked in this way, the cooked corn will definitely taste better than that cooked with water alone.

Food preparation

Corn, a spoonful of baking soda, a spoonful of sugar.

Cooking steps

(1) When cooking corn, no matter what kind of corn it is, you must choose fresh corn with high maturity. Look at the corn kernels in the corn leaves. They must be full and not small. If the corn kernels are too small, it means that the maturity is not enough and the cooking is not chewy enough. First, remove the old skin from the outside of the corn, leaving only the tender skin close to the corn kernels.

(2) Next, take out all the corncobs. This process is complicated, but don't bother. Be sure to remove it so that it won't be laborious to eat, and then rinse the corn and set it aside.

(3) Next, pour more water into the pot, then add a spoonful of white sugar and a spoonful of baking soda, stir well, then put the corn into the pot, pay attention to the amount of water must exceed the corn, then put it into the pot, turn on the fire and start heating.

(4) Keep the fire to boil the water in the pot, then turn to low heat and cook slowly, cover the pot and continue to cook for 15 minutes. At this time, the corn inside is already very fragrant. When it is cooked, turn off the heat, take it out and put it on a plate, and eat it when it is cold.

⑤ The corn cooked in this way can smell a thick waxy fragrance from a distance and tastes very sweet. Adding salt can especially stimulate the sweetness of corn, but don't put too much salt, just one spoonful is enough. If you like corn, try cooking it this way. It will be delicious.

knack for cooking

When cooking corn, don't use it directly. Add baking soda and salt to the water and put a spoonful of both. Just put the corn in cold water and stir it evenly before adding it. Don't wait until it is ripe, it won't help much.
