This is how you cook an shuck an ear of corn perfectly in a microwave. Here’s what you do: 1. Put the whole cob (with the husk) in the microwave and cook for 4 minutes. 2. Once they’re done, just cut off one end, and squeeze the other to pop out the ear of corn. (carefully, they’re really f*cking hot) And that’s it. The corn is cooked and shucked perfectly— didn’t even have those little strings attached. I don’t own a microwave, but maybe I should consider getting one. - Chef Mike | Detroit 75 K
