We don’t salt the water! You will need to do this about 5 minutes before the end of cooking, because… salt added early makes the grains tougher.
And cook the corn for about 20 minutes. You can get your bearings by tasting one or two grains to see if they are ready.
Just because the corn is cooked doesn’t mean it’s ready .
I did as Irina Mikhailovna advised.
I eagerly took out the cobs after half an hour, took the first sample, and…
The corn turned out so much better than the previous one (and I cooked from one batch, because I bought 10 ears at once) that I didn’t even believe that this could happen.
