Don't ask me why, but Matt brought six ears of corn home from the store two days ago. It didn't really fit into any of my meal plans, but who am I to say no to one of my favorite veggies?
So, last night I shucked all six ears, trimmed the ends and rinsed them. I fit three ears in a size Large Ziploc Zip 'n Steam cooking bag, layed it flat in the microwave and set it for 5 minutes on High. After 5 minutes, I removed the bag from the microwave, unzipped it and placed the corn on a plate. I repeated this process for the remaining corn.
The result? Delicious, perfectly done corn on the cob! I will not be resorting to boiling corn again. I hate dragging out an extra pot for that, waiting for the water to boil, and then having a starchy pan to wash. This was fast, easy and yum yum yummy! Fresh green beans are next!
Oh! I forgot to add that Joe ate one and a half ears himself!
