Interesting. Worth a try. Thanks for sharing.


I've no house in the city, just a camping tent in the wild.

Shucking is easy, getting that darn silk off is the pain in the tush.

This looks awesome. I am so going to try it.

Quick question, after those four minutes, is your corn cooked enough to eat or do you need to still cook some more?

Note: 4 minutes per ear = 8 minutes in microwave. I would expect to slather on some butter, salt and pepper, and eat it.

based on what we have found that is correct .... we've cooked 3 ears for 12 minutes and they were fine

Yu'll got my mouth watering for some fresh corn.
Can't wait til it comes in. Take a salt shaker a stick of softened butter between the rows and enjoy.

We had some of that Kroger corn on the cob last week. It was great! I wasn't expecting it to be so good this early in the year.

Tried this last night. It worked just like in the video. I really prefer corn grilled in a soaked husk, with some charring burning thru here and there.,I'm going to try cooking it that way next and use this husking method.

We did this and it is fabulous! Not a single silk! It truly does work.

And the Kroger corn was good enough we had it 3 nights in a row! lol

A a slight highjack of the thread:
Back in the olden days the only way to get real good sweet corn was to grow it yourself, have a pot of boiling water ready, and pick and run to the house with the corn. Trip and fall and you needed to go back for "fresh".
Today with the hybrid sweet corn having much longer "half life" before the sugars turn into starches that cause "stale taste". Not to mention having a lot higher sugar content to start with makes buy grocery store corn in the off season that actually doesn't taste like cow/feed corn a real possiblity.
Our local major farm stand actually grows 7 different varieties of sweet corn (mainly the white/yellow varieties) that extend the local corn season by double or more as the varieties range from very early to very late maturities.

I agree with Lady Ann, its the silk that hols everything up.
