I don't wrap it. I pour a very small amount of water onto a shallow plate (water is totally optional), place the corn onto the plate and microwave it on high power for 3 minutes. My microwave has a 900-watt capacity. Then I remove the corn from the microwave and coat with butter.

I read about this years ago in a magazine; beats messing with all that boiling water. Two ears come out good if microwaved for five minutes, individually wrapped. I believe the same source said to use plain rather than printed paper towels, since the printed ones might not interact well with the microwave. _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
