Corn on the cob
Got this email a while ago, on how to put corn on the cob in microwave, and then cut stub, and it pulls right out. It worked real good. Put full cob (with husk) into microwave, for 7 minutes. Then cut stub (not tip) and pull out. Comes out with NO hairy stuff, and ready to eat. Of course, you need mittens to hold. You can experiment with the minutes, according to strength of microwave. Try it sometime, you will like. No more husking!!!

I don't think there is really good sweet corn here...or at least we haven't found it. I am missing Ohio corn.

IMHO the best way to cook corn is to drop shelled corn into boiling water for 3-4 minutes. Don't overcook! Just bought corn at the supermarket out of desperation. It was awful. I honestly don't know what we'll do about the corn situation when we move to TV. Sigh! Graciegirl, maybe we need to start a support group!

Ditto to the quality of corn here in TV. Ohio may have some good corn but my money is on New Jersey corn. Melt in your mouth delicious!! I have nuked corn this way for years and it is the best method for those of us who don't want to boil. Quick and EASY.

Have to say that Nebraska corn is the very bestest!!! After all, it is the "Cornhusker" state!!
Gracie, I'm sorry, that was just too easy!! I am really sorry!! |

Is there really a state that has the best corn? I could say Upstate NY has the best; others could say OH, NJ, FL, MN, KS, NE, etc., but the real truth is... the state that have the cows that make the best manure, make the best tasting corn!

I agree. EXCEPT two KEY states were omitted from the good corn list. Iowa and Illinois!!! Kinda like the best pizza and ribs discussion. Good corn can be found in a lot of states, thankfully....

Sorry, it was just a sampling of states and not a list of the states that have good corn. I'm sure there are a lot more that could also be added to the list, but if I were listing states that could possible have the best corn, I'd had better list all 50 states or duck!

PaPaLarry, what do you mean by "Cut the stub (not tip) and pull out"? If I cut off the stub then how do I pull it out? I can't picture this in my mind. Do I pull it out from the end I just cut off? I'd really like to try cooking corn this way, but I'm afraid I need diagrams. Can you explain it so even I can understand it? Judy the Dense
