Buttery Garlic Corn on the Cob Delight

Ingredients

- 4 ears of corn on the cob, husked
- 1/2 cup salted butter, softened
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

1. Prepare the Corn:
- Remove the husks and silk from each ear of corn, ensuring they are clean and ready for cooking.

2. Infuse the Milk:
- In a large pot, add 1 cup of whole milk and bring it to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Avoid excessive boiling to prevent scorching.

3. Cook the Corn:
- Once the milk is simmering, carefully place the corn cobs into the pot.
- Cover the pot and allow the corn to cook for approximately 10 minutes (PT10M) until the kernels are tender and infused with the milky flavor.

4. Prepare the Garlic Butter:
- While the corn cooks, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
- Stir the mixture well to ensure even distribution of the garlic and seasonings throughout the butter.

5. Add Flavor:
- Remove the corn from the pot, allowing any excess milk to drip off.
- Use a pastry brush or a spoon to generously coat each ear of corn with the garlic butter mixture while still warm to allow it to melt and saturate the kernels.

6. Final Touch:
- Optionally, sprinkle a touch more salt and pepper to taste based on preference.
- Serve warm as a delightful, aromatic snack.
