corn on the cob

 corn on the cob

how do you like yours? I have tried it every way I heard of. my favorite is to microwave the whole ears.  microwave them, leaving the husk on. not only does the husk seal in the moisture but imparts the corn flavor to the ears. they clean up easily after cooking. cut off stem end and squeeze from silk end. ear squirts out clean as a whistle. 

just put as many ears as your microwave will hold on a tray. zap for four minutes or so on one side and rotate flip them over for another 4-5 minutes or so. let them cool enough to handle

For every serving put in the water a chicken bouillion cube or use chicken broth instead of water. Three finger pinch of seasalt. Bring to a boil and add grits.
