Fresh corn on the cob actually does not require boiling. Most people do boil it but you boil it as long as you want. Five minutes is enough.

An extra Tip: adding a half cup of sugar enhances the flavor of the corn as well.

If you are boiling frozen corn it only takes around five to seven minutes after they start boiling to cook them, a good idea is to melt two tablespoons of butter in a medium sized pot to give the corn a better flavor.

Fresh corn on the cob should be just covered with cold water. Bring the water to a boil, cover and remove from heat. Allow to sit covered for 10 minutes.

How much water should you use boiled 12 ears of corn?

Two inches. Use a hay box.ANS2That pretty much depends on the size and shape of your pot and the size of the ears. Put enough water in the pot to cover the ears. Corn tends to float so, either put a lid on the pot or turn the ears while they cook.Personally, I think corn turns out better roasted in the husk.
