Boiled corn is often a common staple. Corn is considered a high source of fiber, and boiling doesn't decrease this. Add a little butter and salt on a hot summer day to keep your electrolytes in balance. Buttered corn feels smooth and soft. When mixed with other vegetables, it may not be as smooth. To change the side dish flavor and texture, add other options, such as diced red or green peppers, or lima beans. Use caution with peppers. Peppers make some people very ill. As a casserole ingredient, leftover corn increases texture. Corn can be eaten to improve digestion.
