To prepare, simply drain the liquid from the can. You can then heat the corn on the stovetop in a saucepan over medium heat until warmed through. Alternatively, you can microwave the corn in a microwave-safe dish for a few minutes, stirring halfway through. For a richer flavor, you might consider adding a pat of butter or a sprinkle of salt and pepper before serving. It is also delicious mixed directly into other dishes without pre-heating.
