π¨βπ³ Instructions
Place scant teaspoon of lye into iron kettle (never use aluminum).
Cautiously add 1 gallon of water.
When lye comes into contact with water, it boils up and produces a solution caustic enough to cause dangerous burns to skin and flesh.
Add corn. Stir; let stand overnight.
Use only an enamelware or stainless steel spoon.
