The cheapest is to just forgo using better, but are there a simple substitutes to butter/margarine? Or is there an alternative way to prepare ears of corn without animal products, yet still retains some basic taste?

I am looking for an alternative to drenching sweet corn in butter that's not too fancy. I suppose this question can be expanded for all entrees heavily dependent on butter. (It's usually easy to come up with butter alternatives for cooking, and that's not what I'm asking.)



Best Answer

"Dairy-free margarine" is available at any supermarket.
It's half the price of a supermarket 'econo-saver' butter, pound for pound & a quarter the price of a premium, Lurpak, President etc.

If you want something a bit less 'artificial' try a spray of olive oil & a light sprinkle of salt. Half the point of putting butter on corn is the added salt anyway.

'Fun' alternatives - chilli oil, garlic oil, basil oil, pesto...
