Ingredients
  

  • unshucked corn on the cob

Method
 

  1. Take the ears of corn, still in the husk. Trim the ends, making sure the husk still completely enclosed the corn.
  2. Microwave. Time will vary by the number of ears you cook, and your microwave - as a rule of thumb, start with 4 minutes for two ears.
  3. When they are done, very carefully peel back the husks, being careful not to scald yourself in the steam.
