SWEET CORN POACHED IN SUMMER TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• I shucked the corn and removed all the "silk," rinsed the ears, and dropped four of them in the pot. I covered the saucepan so it quickly returned to a gentle boil, and cooked the ears for about 8 minutes, until the kernels were tender.
• Dripping with sauce, the corn looked beautiful and tasted great-and no one needed butter. In addition, the sauce in the pot gained extra sweetness.
• Try this whenever you make this summer tomato sauce. It's easy to cook a half-dozen ears of corn when the large batch of tomatoes is cooking for the first time. Or you can reheat a quart or more of finished sauce and poach a couple of ears in it at a time.
