Corn with browned butter has a rich, nutty flavor that is a step up from simply adding butter to corn. A generous garnish of cheese completes this dish and will definitely have your family and friends asking for seconds.
Any hard cheese can be used in this recipe. Try Pecorino Romano, Parmigiano-Reggiano, Manchego or sharp Cheddar.

Ingredients:
- 6 ears of corn or 3-4 cups frozen corn

If using fresh corn, shave the kernels off the cob with a knife.
