I use this method when preparing corn on cob for just my wife and myself. For larger gatherings my wife usually boils a mess of ears.

I wish we could get fresh sweet corn here, but we don't. It has to be picked two weeks ago to show up in a Texas grocery store.

I read your post a couple years ago, and I have been fixing corn on the cob this way ever since. I like fixing it on the grill, but this is just so easy, I can’t resist.

Same here. I saved the video link, but have done it so often now I don’t need it.
So easy even a lawyer can do it...... even a retired lawyer.
Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.
When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

It's been our go to method for years. It's just too easy and quick not to.

I saw this video some years back, and started doing all of my corn on the cob in the microwave oven. I had forgotten how to shuck it though, so thanks!!

I just did a successful forum search for this recipe a couple days ago and the results were delicious.

Thanks again. I have been spreading the gospel by standing by the corn bin and telling all about microwaving. Got some strange looks. Some say they like to grill their corn. Well, nuke & shuck first, then char it later with the burger! Can't miss!

Thanks for that video. I remembered it last year and showed it to my wife. She has used that technique ever since.
