Ingredients

    - 1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened (I use Country Crocks Churn Style)
    - 1 Lime
    - 1 Tablespoon finely snipped fresh cilantro
    - 1/4 Teaspoon salt
    - 6 Ears corn, husks and silk removed

Directions

1. For cilantro-lime butter, place butter in small batter bowl. Zest lime using Lemon Zester/Scorer; finely chop zest to measure 1 teaspoon zest. Juice lime to measure 1 teaspoon juice (I use the whole lime and juice it without measuring). Finely snip cilantro with Kitchen Shears. Add zest, juice, cilantro and salt to softened butter; mix well. Fill Corn butterer with butter mixture; refrigerate 30 min.

2. For corn, bring 4 quarts water to a boil in covered pot over high heat. Trim ends from ears of corn using chefs knife. Firmly twist Corn Cob Nobs into ears. Carefully add corn to boiling water. Cover; return water to a boil. Turn off heat and let corn stand, covered. 8-10 minutes or until crisp-tender. Remove corn and serve immediately with butter.
