How to cook Corn on the COb in the Microwave?

docmay25

My MIL does this and I havent done it since last summer.  If you do it, how do you?  Do you wrap them and for how long?

I put them in a microwavable dish and fill it almost to the top with water.  Takes about 8 minutes or so and I turn them over once half way through the process.  Or I finish them off on the grill if I'm already using it.

I put the entire ear, husks and all, in for 3 minutes per ear. You'll have to use a hot pad to get the husks off when they're done, but the silks basically fall off.?

And now I want corn on the cob!?

I pull the husk back but don't take it off, take out the silks, rinse it off pull the husk back up and nuke it for 3-4 minutes. I've used saran wrap to wrap them before but I don't like to microwave plastic like that.
