Microwave Corn on the Cob is quick, easy and delicious. Corn is one of the few things that actually works better in the microwave! There are a few different ways of cooking corn on the cob in the microwave, but I am going to show you the easiest and fastest one. Follow along as I cook corn on the cob in the microwave! |

First things first. You can clean up your ears if you like. I cut the silk at the end so it's not quite so messy. Soaking is a must for microwaved corn on the cob! Find a container large enough to contain your cobbed corn and fill it with water. |
|
 |
Submerge the corn completely. They will float so you may have to weigh them down with something. Your corn on the cob should soak for at least half an hour prior to microwaving. |
|
 |
Once you're happy with the amount of time they have been soaking, remove the corn from the water and pour out the excess. Pardon the dark picture. |
 |
Place the corn on a microwave safe plate... |
 |
and place into the microwave. |
  |
The cooking time will vary from microwave to microwave. In my microwave it takes 7 minutes for one ear of corn and 8 minutes for two. I haven't tried more than that. If your microwave does not have an automatic turntable, turn the plate half way through cooking. |
 |
Ding! When you have finished bombarding your corn on the cob with radiation remove it from the microwave. Careful, they will be very hot! |
 |
Either let the corn sit for 10-15 minutes to cool before shucking or shuck in the sink under cool running water. The silk should come right off no problem. |
 |
Let's play dress up! How do you like your corn on the cob? I like butter, salt and pepper! |
 |
I use stick-butter and roll my corn on the cob around on top of it to thoroughly coat it with buttery goodness.
Yumm! |
 |
And here you have it! Delicious Microwaved corn on the cob ready faster than any other cooking method and just as delicious! |
