Microwave corn, in the husk -- no silk to deal with

[Kathie in Thorp]

A bachelor friend of mine sent me this link a couple days ago. Looks like it would be cumbersome to do more than a couple ears at a time, but a pretty slick trick! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnBF6bv4Oe4

That's good. That's also how a friend of mine freezes his corn - in the shuck.

I've heard of doing it but my question is, how does nuked corn on the cob taste compared to roasted or boiled.

 

[Jogeephus]

I honestly cannot tell any difference. Maybe a tiny bit more bite than boiled but no different than steamed.

I've learned a new trick. Thanks!

Something new to try, just have to wait for the mealies to grow - our growing season has just started
