I don't think there is really good sweet corn here...or at least we haven't found it. I am missing Ohio corn.
We have another "foolproof" method. We bring water to a boil, put the corn in. When the water comes back to a boil then take it off the heat. Perfect every time! And, being that we're from Toledo I agree that Ohio corn is so sweet it's like eating sugar!
