MICROWAVE CORN ON THE COB

Microwave Corn on the Cob image

Simple and quick. Different from the other recipes in that the corn is wrapped in wax paper. Adjustable to any reasonable amount of corn. Would be ideal for someone cooking for one or two. From Kraft Food + Family. The butter is listed as an optional ingredient since you really don't need it, but I enjoy melting a huge blob of it on my corn after it's done :-)

Ingredients

4 ears corn
4 tablespoons butter (optional)

Steps:

Shuck fresh corn. Wrap each ear in wax paper.
Microwave for 2 minutes per ear of corn. (For 4 ears, 8 minutes.) Remove from microwave, open carefully, and enjoy. I like to top mine with salt and butter, the magazine suggested a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and lime juice.
To keep them warm awhile, leave wrapped and cover with a kitchen towel :-).

Summer time and corn is in season. Sometimes it is too hot bring a pot of water to a boil. Short on time? This is when the microwave comes into play.

SILK-FREE CORN ON THE COB - MICROWAVED

Silk-Free Corn on the Cob - Microwaved image

Thanks to Ken, I'll never have to boil corn on the cob nor fight its silk again, because doing it this way results in fast, silk-free cobs. Yay! Microwave two ears for 8 minutes; one ear for 4 minutes. The garlicky, cheesy butter is pretty nomlicious, too.

Time 9m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

2 corn cobs (untrimmed, unshucked, field-grown)
3 tablespoons butter
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

Microwave the corn, husks and all, for 8 minutes on high. (One ear for 4 minutes.).
While it's nuking, melt butter in a small saucepan. When it starts bubbling, add the garlic and stir gently for about 30 seconds until very fragrant. Remove from heat.
Remove the corn from the microwave with head safe gloves. They will be HOT.
Cut the root end (not the silky end) just at the widest part of the cob and discard. You want to make sure you're cutting through ALL of the husks, not just the external ones.).
Grab the entire tip of the corn (just the husks and silk) tightly in one hand with the cut end down and, over a plate, shake the corn downwards until the cob falls out of the husk.
Pour melted butter over the corn and sprinkle parmesan over it.
Marvel at the miracle! ;o).
