Instructions
Microwave in Husk
Place the corn still in its husk directly on the microwave turntable and microwave on high for 4 minutes. The husk acts as a natural steaming wrapper.
Rest and Peel
Allow the corn to rest for 2 minutes before handling as it will be very hot. Cut off the bottom end of the husk and squeeze the corn out, the silk will slide off cleanly.
Butter and Season
Rub butter over the hot corn and sprinkle with salt. Serve immediately while still steaming hot.
