Corn is also useful for health. In summer, the youngest and the oldest, reach for corn as per dessert. Enjoy the sweet taste either it's boiled or baked, as a snack and as an addition to many dishes. Some even freeze corn for winter.
This corn is super sweet, so they call it "sugar" or "shekerka" - Dutch seed. Although it's sweet, we put some salt on top and eat it that way. What to say, I don't know anyone who can resist warm corn in summer.
Some of us boil corn on cob at home.
Preparation:
- First you need to clean every cob from the leaves and silk. Keep some of the leaves, so you can use them to put boiled corn on a leaf and eat it that way.
- Bring to boil water in a larger pot and put cleaned cobs in the pot. Leave to boil on a low heat for 2-3 hours, depends on the corn.
- Leave to cool a bit and your corn on cob is ready to be eaten. Put 1 peace on a corn leaf, sprinkle some salt and enjoy the taste of freshly boiled corn on cob.
