I wouldn’t want plastic wrap on my food in the microwave. I’ve placed corn

in a Pyrex dish w/a half an inch of water, covered w/a plastic lid that prevents splattering & holds some steam but it’s not touching the food. I know they have microwaveable saranwrap but I think the jury’s still out. I’ve also seen people use wax paper before but I think it’s easier to use the Pyrex dish & water method.
For me it’s more about whether the corn is fresh. If it’s good fresh corn, I’ll eat it plain w/o salt, pepper or butter.

The trick if you boil is to add a little SUGAR, not salt, to the water. -- King Jaffe Joffer 05/10/2018 2:33PM

My problem is I don't really know the 'formula' for grilling it, but have -- Late 80s Hokie 05/10/2018 2:05PM

Microwave or grill in the husk** -- 81_Hokie 05/10/2018 1:18PM

Skip the foil, and I agree. ** -- 48zip 05/10/2018 12:26PM

Good fresh corn is good raw. Not as good, but..... ** -- 48zip 05/10/2018 6:31PM

I used to grill it with the husk on, but I think it's better without -- reestuart 05/10/2018 12:57PM

Agry. The char is what makes it right. ** -- 48zip 05/10/2018 12:59PM

Use Tajin instead of salt/pepper once in a while. ** -- reestuart 05/10/2018 12:36PM

That sounds pretty good. ** -- 48zip 05/10/2018 12:54PM

I’ve never tried Tajin I’ll have to look for it. Would a regular grocery -- Hoakie82 05/10/2018 12:49PM

I think we bought ours at Aldi, but regular stores likely have it. -- reestuart 05/10/2018 12:51PM
