Perfect. I grew up on a farm and this is about the style I used. Either way - fresh corn is the best!
|
except that I like to leave a stub of the "stem" as a handle to hold it while I'm eating. I don't like buttery hands. I'm sure it tastes better than corn that has been boiled with a lot of water which dilutes the taste.. I layer some husks on the bottom of the pot and use 1/2 inch water and steam the ears.
I love corn fresh from the garden --Mmmmm |
What fun! I hope I remember this when the grand kids come to stay next summer. Then will think I am crazy, weird and just the best grammie they could ever have when I shake the corn out of the husks! Thanks for the 8:00 am smile!

I feel like this is a stupid question, so pardon if it is. |
Hmmm....I'll have to give this a try, thanks for sharing. I don't usually cook my corn but for about 2 min. per ear, but I assume with the husks on...you need that extra time. We LOVE corn on the cob though and this is worth a try!

I passed this on to all my relatives. Thanks.

All these years I have been cleaning the husks off then boiling the ears. This is so simple.

I will have to pass on this too although it seems like an easy way.
I do not like to microwave anything - It changes the molecture structor of the food - so is not really good food after microwaving it. Sorry but that is how I feel. Why eat something that by doing so has been changed into something that is not healthy? |
I will have to buy some corn and see if this really works. Neat!
