What to add to corn when cooking
To cook young corn properly, it is important to follow the rules. It is recommended to completely clean the cobs from leaves and hairs, and leave the leaves
Wash the corn and leaves, put half of the leaves on the bottom of the pan, put the cobs on top of them. Cover them with the rest of the leaves, pour boiling water over them.
And after that, it is important to add that very secret ingredient responsible for the softness of the product. Even not very soft corn will be softened by soda added to the pan on the tip of a knife.
After that, put the pot on the fire and note the time. Young corn needs 20-25 minutes to cook until done. But in the case of old cobs, you will have to cook them for an hour and a half to two hours.
