Even though I am very unsuccessful at growing corn and have FAILED miserably at doing so, I still enjoy eating it!
So, I have seen a few posts around Pinterest on how to shuck your corn without having to deal with the silk. I will admit I was a little skeptical at first, but it does actually work. Its so easy and a lot less messy!
This process is as easy as 1-2-3
Step 1: Select your corn...easy right!
Step 2: Place corn in the microwave for 5 minutes, unshucked. When done cut off the end of the corn about 1/2 inch from the bottom
Step 3: Get a hot pad and hold vertically and watch with amazement as the corn slips right out of the husk
Taa-Daa! You have silk free corn!
ENJOY!!
This is such a good idea. I'll have to try it next time we eat fresh corn.

ReplyDeleteThis is the only way we do corn! In fact, I'm so in love with this process I blogged about it right when the weather started getting warmer! http://exploringdomesticity.blogspot.com/2013/05/no-peel-microwave-corn-on-cob-aka-best.html Isn't it the greatest!
