114. Cooking corn-on-the-cob in the microwave. The process is pretty easy and
maybe easier than the boiling method. To prepare the corn, do not husk it.
Simply peel back the husk and remove the silk. Then add several thin tabs of
butter, salt and any other seasonings and close up the husk again. You want the
husk to hug the cob throughout the cooking process, and you can use a rubber
band too.
115. Time to cook corn-on-the-cob. Microwave the corn at about 2 minutes per ear.
Starting with the 5
th
ear, just add 1 ½ minutes per ear. Remember, all microwave
cooking times and strength are different. Reorient the corn often.
116. Keep microware corn-on-the-cob warm. When the cycle is done, take all of the
corn out and wrap them in a cotton towel to trap the heat for 3-5 minutes. It is
fun to serve the corn right out of the towel so each ear is nice and warm and your
guests can husk and eat the corn at the table.
