    Place the soft butter in a medium bowl. Heat the honey in a separate microwavable bowl for 1 minute, add the salt, and mix. Allow to cool slightly – the mixture should be liquid and runny. Add the lime zest to the butter along with the warm honey and combine with a spatula until smooth

    Using a very sharp knife, cut the corn down the centre lengthways, then in half, and then into quarters from tip to tip, repeat with the remaining corn. Blanch the corn for 3 minutes or until bright yellow in colour. Remove from the pot and drain.
