If you named this for Evelyn/Athens, she should be proud. I only had fresh parsley and garlic available, had to use dried herbs for the rest, 1/3 the amount of the fresh. Even with that modification, we just loved it. Since we boiled our corn, the herbs had a chance to develop in the warmed butter. Very spicy and complex. Thank you!

    Ok- a little too much 'herb' for us but this was a nice change from the ord.... Maybe next time less basil and more garlic? Good recipe Cooky!

    What a wonderful addition to fresh corn on the cob! We loved the butter in this recipe. Perfect! We not only spread it on the corn, but were slathering it on bread. This recipe is definitely a keeper!
