Korean Honey Butter Corn

  • Author: Funky Asian Kitchen
  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Cook Time: 5 minutes
  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: serves 2

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ears of corn
  • 2 Tablespoons salted butter
  • ½1 Tablespoon honey
  • Ground black pepper to taste
  • Sprinkling of maldon (or any coarse salt)

Instructions

Prepare the corn: Remove the leaves and the silk from the corn. Place a small dish upside down in a large bowl. Rest the end of the corn on the small dish (this keeps the corn steady) and cut the corn off of the cob. Make sure you do not cut so deeply that you are cutting into the fibrous cob. Discard the cobs.

Cook the corn: Heat a medium skillet over medium high heat for a couple minutes. Add the butter and swirl it around the pan. Add the corn and cook it for 2-3 minutes, moving the corn around the pan with a wooden spoon or just flipping it to cook evenly. 

Turn off the heat and add the honey, swirling it into the corn to evenly distribute it. Season with ground pepper and transfer to a serving plate. Garnish with a sprinkling of coarse salt and serve immediately.


Notes

*Use the freshest corn available. If you’re cooking this out of season, I prefer frozen corn over canned.
