@@David-vn2id So does adding nirogen to oxygen which magically turns into water. You know, the stuff all life needs or dies without? When molecules move around a lot they get hot. When food goes into the microwave the molecules move around (a lot) which makes the moisture in the food heat up. If you leave the food in the microwave for the right amount of time it cooks the food. I'm old enough to remember when microwaves became a thing to have in the kitchen. We were taught how and why it worked. In elementary school. You sound like you did make it to the 6th grade but do wear a tinfoil hat which wouldn't be good in a microwave. Education is good, don't be afraid of it. People who don't pay attention in school aren't able to figure things out or might just be stupid. If you boil your corn in water, which also makes molecules jiggle around really fast, that is where you will find some of the nutrients. Drink in up, yum.

I saw this last night laying in bed and literally said - out loud, "OH MY GOD!" Tonight I went to the store and bought 5 ears for $2.00 and came straight home to try this. 3:33 in the microwave and I removed it to cut the end off. Right then my wife walked in and I showed her, from cutting the end off to squeezing the cob out of the husk. She said, "OH MY GOD!" We're in our 50's and we both started thinking of all the years of boiling corn after husking and all the time wasted trying to get the silk off. This is the most amazing cooking tip I have EVER seen. Of course my wife says it must have been thought up by a woman. Whatever. Not in my house! lol And it was so good, too! Thanks Chef John!

Never too late to learn! :) P.s. I'm split on the whole microwave safe / unsafe thing - like most things I think if you minimize it, you'll be fine. Slow cooking still tastes best for most things anyway. But quickly heating up leftovers still saves a lotta time in the long run. So, maybe the trade-off is longer life spent heating leftovers vs. shorter one spending it on Netflix & other activities!

Tango Vagabond - Food & Travel Lifestyle you can steam the ears just the same and use the same method of husk and silk removal, plus steaming or grilling allows you to prepare more than 1 ear at a time. This method is the way my mom taught us. Corn only needs to be hot to eat not cooked to death, 10 to 12 minutes of steaming will yield the same results.

I take it a step further though, once.i remove it.from the microwave, I put them on the grill for a few minutes, which gives a hint of the grilling flavor. If you do this, be sure to put on the sides, so you are not cooking over direct heat. I rotate the ears to get that charred look on the husk, open the end with silk, so the flavor gets through. Love the video. Enjoy!

This is the perfect cooking method for corn on the cob. Every microwave differs in cooking time, but once you experiment, and determine the exact time that works for your microwave oven, you'll be able to get it perfect everytime! Nutrionally, this method also beats boiling, as many vitamins and minerals are water soluble and get lost in the boiling process.

Take it from a produce manager, 2nd generation style, this IS the proper way of shucking corn. Cooking method may vary using water, microwave or grill. However, Chef John is spot on with his technique. If you would like to soak it for an hour first and then drain it to get the leaves(and the silk too BTW) good and moistened so that the steam does the cooking and not the direct heat. Makes for the BEST cooked corn ever. OH, and you dont HAVE to cook corn to eat it. Its nutricious raw as well. But most people don't know that so let's keep it between ourselves(shhhhh)...

CORN TINES or CORN HOLDERS. I boil my corn, husk and all in chicken stock (though I do snap or cut the bottoms off and snip the tips to reduce hairs). They do not infuse, per se, but it does get some flavor between the kernels and it adds a nice salty brine flavor. I sometimes finish on the grill, making grill marks on the wet husks but that's for presentation for guests and yes, it's more messy that way. Lots of silk to deal with. I imagine this would be easier, even though I hate using my microwave unless I need to. I like this idea a lot. I'll try it.

Yoseppi Joe I press +30 a whole bunch of times so I don’t have to press the num pad or the start button.

@@boostedmaniac my nice microwave had that feature, and it was all I used when I had it lol. It burned up, and still had a nice, but older one, so no +30 button for now. I'm sure my next microwave will have one again.

Oh, and...I find the best way to butter is, I use a large plasticware or casserole dish, drip dry from the boil or immediately off the grill, throw them all in, then use a cold stick of butter to apply. You can hold the stick and paint by pulling back the foil or paper just enough. I run it back and forth on each, salt, lemon pepper, a little paprika, and or garlic salt, then roll them back and forth by 'panning' (holding the dish and rocking them back and forth, assuming there's room to do so). They eventually get completely saturated with the butter that rolled off and they get a nice even coating of seasoning.

where is the shake of cayenne?!?
@bruderjr7 жыл бұрын
I'm sure a tiny shake of cayenne, right after the butter, would be tasty.

Food Wishes obviously, it's "for all intensive purposes" because this method of cooking corn is pretty... INTENSE!
