Ingredients

• 4 ears corn
• 2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter

1. Remove the husks and silk from the corn. Or buy the fresh ears that have already been cleaned.
2. Holding the cob straight up on the cutting board cut off the kernels and close as possible to the cob. You should have about 5 cups of kernels.
