Corn on the Cob Microwave Style
Corn on the Cob Microwave Style
Notes
It is recommended to only do 2 ea. ears at a time using this method. If several ears of corn are needed, simply cook 2 at a time, remove the corn from the microwave, leave the leaves on, wrap the corn in aluminum foil, and store in a closed container until needed. They will remain hot. If you are only preparing 1 ear of corn, microwave time should be reduced to 3 min.
Ingredients
- 2 ea. ears of freshly picked corn
- salt
- butter
- pepper
Instructions
- Cut off both ends of corn (an absolute must!)
- Remove excess leaves, allowing as many leaves as possible to remain on the corn

- Place in microwave and cook on high for 4 minutes
- Carefully remove corn from microwave
- Place corn holders into each end while leaves and paper towel are still on the corn
