Microwave Corn on the Cob

Why would one need to know this method? Let's just say that if you happen to buy a bunch of corn on the cob and come home to realize that you do not own a pot big enough to boil it all in, this method is handy. Ah, the beauty of google.

Soak corn, husk and all, in a large pot or the sink for at least 1/2 hour. I soaked mine for probably about an hour or so.

Drain and stick 2 ears of corn in the microwave for about 8-9 minutes.

Let corn cool for about 10-15 minutes. Shuck and enjoy!

This tasted just as good as boiling it.

  1. I can honestly say that I have never boiled an ear of corn. We just shuck in, wrap it in plastic, and microwave for about 4 minutes. I like it better than boiled corn I've had.
