How can you microwave an ear of corn?

Question

Is it possible?

Answer 1

You probably can, but I think it will dry out the corn. It will taste yucky.

Just add a couple cups of water in a pan, let boil, then add the ear of corn. The corn is done when it looks bright yellow and its soft when you poke it with a fork.

Answer 2

Corn on the cob can be cooked in the microwave. Remove husk  and wash corn to remove all the silk, place on microwave safe plate and cover with wax paper. Depending on the wattage of your microwave, 2-4 minutes should be enough. I have cooked corn this way for years, it always tastes great.

Answer 3

We do this alot! Put the corn (husk on) in the micro wave. Press- frehs vegetable. When the micro stops, put the timer on, fresh veg, one more time. The corn will be very hot in the husk, use hand towels to strip the husks. Roll the corn in butter, dash of salt, yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

Answer 4

After you husk it you can wrap a piece of waxed paper around it and cook it on high for about 1 minute per each ear.

Answer 5

get a tupperware container with about an inch full of water.  put your corn  in a ziploc bag with a small opening.  Put the bagged corn in the tupperware container with a tight lid.  microwave for like 4-7 minutes.  

put butter and seasonings in the bag with the corn

Answer 6

If you're really interested in microwaving it because you can't use a stove, just place the corn, either whole, or chopped up in a few smaller pieces, into a large microwave-safe bowl of water (chopping corn that's on a cob is difficult and can be dangerous; however, it's more manageable and will cook faster).

Cover the bowl containing the corn with saran wrap and heat for a few minutes. After about two or three minutes, remove the saran wrap and heat again for one or two minutes.

Very simple.  Wash the corn, wrap in wax paper, put in microwave and cook for no more than 2 to 3 minutes. If it is fresh corn, it will taste delicious.  For frozen corn, read the package directions.
