I shuck and clean the corn, put in a 8x8 or 9x13 flat pan, add enough water to just cover bottom of the pan, tightly cover with plastic wrap and microwave 3 minutes per ear! I don't want to be doing all this shucking at dinnertime!
In my opinion, you're not cooking them QUITE long enough, which is why you struggled a bit squeezing it out. Other than that, yeah, perfection! It's truly so easy.
The trick way to do it is cook it right in the husk! You can do that either in the microwave or right on the barbecue! 3 minutes per side in the microwave, cook till done on the barbecue. It's usually when the outside of the house starts to turn brown it's done. Keep it off. Extremely high heat.
@@235buz I'm telling you cook it on the grill. Roll it around until it's kind of brown on the husk and you can check it by taking it off and just pulling it back a little bit. I cook corn in the microwave in the husk for 3 minutes aside. It comes out completely done. I cut the silk off the end so I don't have to contend with it but that's all I do and it comes out great!
Hi, this was interesting, I appreciated the tip on how to cook corn in the microwave. One question, because you weren’t explicit, I am totally blind and which end of the corn did you cut? Was it the stem side so then you could push it out That way or was it where the silt comes out on the short side? Did you cut to push the corn out? Thank you for your presentation. 2:44
That is a great question but unfortunately I have found that the longer you leave it in the husk after heating it up the harder it is to squeeze the corn out. I have not tried barbecuing it afterwards, so maybe that would heat it back up enough to easily squeeze out of the husk? Let me know if you try it!
Completely submerged in water a few hours or overnight. Grill in husk to taste. Carmelizes the sugars in the kernels. I absolutely love it! If you have campfires you can cook that way also. From a short time to steam to longer with dark colouring this is divine! I find micro cooking cools quickly after and isn't my favourite.
I love fresh corn on the cob! So delicious and easy!
Yes! And I find myself cooking more of it when I don’t have to struggle removing the silk!
Works like a charm. Your time may vary. Another great feature is the minimal amount of trash you have to deal with as opposed to shucking first.
Absolutely! Good point!
Looks good. I’m going to try this today. Thanks for the video!
Thank you! let me know how it turned out for you! I made them again tonight for dinner!
Turned out perfect! From now on this is the only way I’ll cook corn on the cob.
Looks good!
Thank you! I appreciate you so much!
Wish i could have heard the first part.

This works great😊
Great! Once you’ve tried it, it’s the only where you cook corn. I love having no silk to pick out.
@@GritsandGouda only way will ever do corn on the cob
The corn should just plop out of the husk effortlessly. If you have to wrestle it to remove it, it's under cooked, add more cooking time.
Thank you for the tip!

3 minutes per side? Good luck.

Yes, you cut off the end of the corn that is the thickest part and the husk is attached to it then you push it out the same cut end.
@@GritsandGouda thank you for that information! Have a good day
If you were to cook it like so, could you keep it in the husk and grill it later on a barbecue?

Thank you. But I wonder if this works as well with corn that was frozen in the husk. And without blanching will the taste be the same.
I have never frozen corn still in the house before, so I have not tried that.
@@GritsandGouda OK Thank You.
Absolutely!
Sorry I like my corn Cooked 8 mine cook 2 together 12 mins
That works too!
YUMMY cold cooked corn... :/
