Love fresh corn on the cob? Skip the pre-cooked stuff from the store and make it yourself in minutes. Your microwave is all you need for tender, flavorful results every time. Here's the simple method I've used for years:
Contents 1. Start with fresh corn on the cob, husk and all.
2. Place it in the microwave for 4 minutes on high.
3. Cut off the stem end with a sharp knife.
4. Hold the silk end and squeeze—the cob slides right out, perfectly steamed.
It's ready to eat! Let it cool slightly to avoid burns. This foolproof technique delivers sweet, juicy corn faster than boiling—simple, quick, and delicious.
