For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a vanilla bean pod while cooking. Remove before serving. This corn can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage. Adjust the sugar to your preference based on the natural sweetness of your corn. For a creamier texture, blend a portion of the cooked corn before serving. Be careful as hot liquids may expand.

StepExtract the Essence: With the back of your knife, scrape the remaining corn and juice from the cobs into the skillet. This step is crucial for maximizing flavor and sweetness. (5 minutes)

StepCombine and Cook: Add the water, sugar, and salt to the skillet. Stir well to ensure the sugar and salt are evenly distributed. (2 minutes)
04
StepSimmer to Perfection: Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has completely dissolved and the mixture begins to slightly thicken. (Approximately 10 minutes)
05
StepCool and Serve: Remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature before serving. The flavors will meld and intensify as it cools. (30 minutes)
