But these days those are pretty common in this country. I remember when you couldn't get them here in WA. Then I remember when I first bought them. Every person I fed them to disliked them. |

> > Very clever. Buttering corn is a bothersome mess. > > W. Pooh (AKA Winnie P.) A good way to butter corn for a lot of people is to use a tall saucepan. Add water and butter and heat. The butter floats to the surface. Dip the corn and the last layer it sees before coming free is the butter. Works very well if your doing lots of corn. |

A good way to butter corn for a lot of people is to use a tall saucepan. Add water and butter and heat. The butter floats to the surface. Dip the corn and the last layer it sees before coming free is the butter. Works very well if your doing lots of corn. I no longer have them because we rarely eat corn on the cob. But I used to have some plastic corn servers that were shaped to fit the corn. You simply put the butter in it, laid the corn down across it, with the little pokey things in the ends to hold it and then turned the corn around and around. The hot corn would melt the butter. |

I use very little, and some black pepper. Bread and butter for breakfast, of course. Bread with sauces, yes. At our favorite pasta place, we feast on bread and butter dipped in olive oil and peppers. This place is only open in summer at lake Erie, by an Italian who lives in Florida in the winter. He is the only cook, and he only serves for 4-5 hours. Best I ever ate in a restaurant. Cooking is done in the dinning room. Secret salad dressing, excellent. Salad, pure lettuce, iceberg. Greg |
