We do it almost the same. We cut the tassle off, trim the stubby end and just roll them into the micro. About 4-5 min for 2 ears, turning them once. The turntable function does not move the upside to down, so we do that turn. There is enough steam from the green husks, and they are cooking in their own juice. The husk and silks slide right off. BE CAREFUL, they are hot as ...... uhm, really hot.
