Microwave Corn on the Cob

Random Rachel's Note:

Simple and quick. Different from the other recipes in that the corn is wrapped in wax paper. Adjustable to any reasonable amount of corn. Would be ideal for someone cooking for one or two. From Kraft Food + Family. The butter is listed as an optional ingredient since you really don't need it, but I enjoy melting a huge blob of it on my corn after it's done :-)

• Total Time: 10 mins
• Prep Time: 2 mins
• Cook Time: 8 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 4 ears corn
• 4 tablespoons butter (optional)

Directions:

1. Shuck fresh corn. Wrap each ear in wax paper.
2. Microwave for 2 minutes per ear of corn. (For 4 ears, 8 minutes.) Remove from microwave, open carefully, and enjoy. I like to top mine with salt and butter, the magazine suggested a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and lime juice.
3. To keep them warm awhile, leave wrapped and cover with a kitchen towel :-).

Excellent! If you have good corn, I feel there is absolutely no need for butter or S & P. YUM! Going to make another one for breakfast!

Very simple and easy to prepare. A great way to prepare corn on the cob. I cooked 2 ears of corn for minutes. The corn remained in the wax paper for a a few minutes before serving. It was moist and tender. The corn was buttered and then sprinkled with seasoning salt.
