Ingredients
- 4 ears corn on the cob
- 4 tablespoons vegan butter
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil. This will be used to cook the corn.
Step 2
While waiting for the water to boil, shuck the corn by removing the outer husks and silk threads until the corn is clean.
Step 3
Once the water is boiling, carefully add the corn to the pot and cover. Cook the corn for about 8-10 minutes or until the kernels are tender.
Step 4
In a small saucepan, melt the vegan butter over low heat. Once melted, stir in the salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Mix until well combined.
Step 5
Finely chop the fresh parsley and add it to the melted vegan butter mixture. Stir to incorporate.
Step 6
After the corn ribs are tender, remove them from the boiling water using tongs, and let them drain briefly on a paper towel.
Step 7
Brush the melted vegan butter mixture generously over each ear of corn, ensuring even coverage on all sides.
Step 8
Serve the corn on the cob immediately while hot, optionally garnishing with a sprinkle of extra chopped parsley or a squeeze of additional lemon juice for extra flavor.
