Wash and take silks off corn. Cut the top off kernels and then cut a second time, scrape the cobb (tip, cut and scrape, these 3 steps makes it creamy). Add 1/2 stick butter, salt to taste, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 cup water. Cook until tender If corn doesn't seem tender you may add a little more water. When corn is tender dissolve 1 tablespoon cornstarch in a little cold water and add to cooked corn to make it the thick consistency you want. (If too thick add a little water).
