- Use this method for one or two ears of corn. For more corn, boil in a big pot.
- Leave the corn in the husk. This will help trap heat and moisture, cooking kernels evenly.
- Microwave on high for ~3.5 minutes (one ear) — add one minute for two ears.
- Rest the ears for at least 5 minutes after cooking before husking. Use the husk as a handle. It may feel only warm on the outside but is extremely hot inside.
