Hot and Crisp Corn on the Cob

Original recipe from family.

Summertime means corn on the cob time!  This is our tried-and-true recipe for keeping the kernels crisp and wrinkle-fee.  :)

Ingredients:

• corn on the cob(s)
• water

Directions, Microwave: (husked and cooked in one!)

1. Place one ear of corn, husk on, in microwave.  Cook 3 1/2 min or until ear is very hot.  
2. Remove from microwave, cut off bottom, and dump corn from husk.  Silk strings and all should be removed!  
3. Alternatively, keep hot in husk until ready to serve.  Serve with butter, salt, and pepper.

Directions, Stove top:

1. Husk corn.  Fill a large pot with water to just cover the bottom, about 1" deep.  Bring water to a boil on high heat.
2. Lay corn cobs in the boiling water.  It's okay if they don't all touch the water.  Cover, let boil 5 min, stirring (more like flipping...) once halfway through.  
3. Drain water and serve with butter, salt and pepper.  Goes well with lentil rice, mashed potatoes, grilled chicken, etc.
