Years ago my friend at work would bring everyone fresh corn on the cob, a stick of butter and a roll of wax paper. We would all gather in the break room shuck our corn rub some butter on it and roll it up in wax paper and twist the ends. We'd stick them in the microwave one by one and the result was unbelievable! Thanks Gwen for all the years of corn and shucking memories. I can't wait for this years crop to come in. This method of corn cooking was one I adopted at home because it was quick and easy and my kids loved it. The loved the aroma, they love the taste and they love those corn holders you stick in the ends of the cob so you can hold your corn easily.
Now that everyone is more health conscious, we don't use butter in our house for corn, we use butter spray and it is just as good especially if you get really sweet corn. Here is how to do it...
4 large corn on the cobs (shucked and rinsed)
butter spray
wax paper
Spray each cob with a generous amount of butter spray and roll the corn up in a piece of wax paper twisting the ends to secure the corn inside. Microwave each piece for 2 minutes on hi. (Only 90 sec for small pieces). Remove wax paper and put on corn holders and you are ready to eat. E Z !!!
