Chef Tips

  • Use frozen sweet corn for the closest restaurant-style texture.
  • Fresh corn cut from the cob works wonderfully during summer.
  • Add a pinch of paprika for extra color.
  • Do not overcook the corn, as it can become chewy.
  • Use high-quality butter for the richest flavor.

Storage

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Reheating

Warm gently in a saucepan over low heat or microwave for 1–2 minutes, stirring halfway.

Freezing

Freeze in freezer-safe containers for up to 2 months.
