Steps
1
Put the corn in the microwave: Place the corn in the microwave, do not remove the husk. Microwave the corn on the high setting for 4 minutes. Note that every microwave is different. If this timing over-cooks the corn in your microwave, reduce it to 2 to 3 minutes the next time.
2
Cut the bottom off the stem end: Use a kitchen towel or pot holder to remove corn from the microwave (it's hot!) Cut off the bottom of the corn, stem end, about one row of corn in from the stem.
3
Remove the husk: Slip off the husk and silk. That's it! How did this trick work for you? Tell us about it in the comments and leave us a rating or review!
