Honey Butter Corn
Description
This simple recipe begins by boiling ears of corn until tender, then draining them thoroughly. During the boil, a mixture of melted salted butter, honey, and chopped parsley is prepared to create a glaze. Once the corn is drained, it is either brushed generously with the honey butter or tossed gently to coat each piece evenly. The resulting dish balances the natural sweetness of the corn with the subtle floral notes of honey and the richness of butter, highlighted by fresh parsley's mild freshness.
The preparation method preserves the corn’s juicy texture while imparting a sweet and buttery finish without overpowering its flavor.
This corn side is quick to assemble and pairs well with grilled meats or as a standalone simple vegetable dish. For those desiring a little spice, a dash or two of cayenne pepper can be added to the honey butter for gentle heat.
Ingredients
- 4 ears corn cut into halves
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 3 tablespoons butter melted, salted
- 1/2 teaspoon parsley chopped
Instructions
- Cook the corn in boiling water for 10 minutes, then drain.
- In the meantime, prepare the honey butter mixture by combining the honey, butter, and chopped parsley.
- Brush the honey butter generously onto each ear of corn, or you can add the honey butter to the corn and toss well. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Add cayenne pepper to the honey butter for a spicy variation.
