Tried this method for making corn on the cob. Best ever. I will never make corn any other way.
Put corn in microwave with husk still on. Cook 4 minutes per ear. Hold with a hot pad and cut off stem end above the bottom of the ear. Slide the ear of corn out without any silk.
Not only was this easy, but the corn was delicious and perfectly cooked. Each kernel came off the cob so easily. Try it. You'll like it.
