Instructions

In a small saucepan, combine frozen sweet corn, water, salt, and butter. Stir gently to distribute evenly.
Place the saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the corn is warmed through and tender, about 8–10 minutes.
Transfer the sweet corn to a serving bowl and enjoy as a side dish. Serve immediately to preserve the corn’s natural sweetness and creamy texture.

Notes

– Use high-quality frozen sweet corn for maximum sweetness and flavor. Substitute plant-based ingredients for vegan diets.

– Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3–4 days. Freeze portions in freezer-safe containers for up to 1 month. Reheat on the stovetop or microwave.
