Is the corn boiled in cold water or hot water?

When cooking corn, let it boil in cold water, so that the corn can be heated more evenly and the cooked corn will taste better. If you cook corn with hot water, the surface of the corn will be burnt to death at once, so the taste is poor.

When cooking corn, you can also leave the skin outside the corn, which will make the cooked corn more fragrant. In addition, when cooking corn, you can also add a proper amount of salt to the water, which can make the taste of corn sweeter.

After the corn is cooked, you can take it out directly and peel it off for eating, or you can peel off the corn grains to make other foods, such as vegetable salad, pine nuts, eggs and corn grains.
