Ingredients
- 4 ears Corn
- 4 Tablespoons Butter

Instructions
- Cut the cobs to fit your microwave using its inner revolving plate as your guide. Do not peel off the husks. If your corn cobs don’t have a husk and are already trimmed, just go to step 2.
- Place each cob under running water and soak through. Wrap each in a wet paper towel. Place the cobs in the microwave and cook on high for 16 minutes or 4 minutes per cob. Cooking time can vary depending on the wattage of your microwave and the size of the cobs.
- The cobs are done when the kernels' color has deepened and become glossy. Allow the cobs to cool until you can hold them without burning yourself. Remove the paper towel and cut off the stem end of the cobs.
- Peel the husks off from the top down to the stem end. Clean off any stray strands of cornsilk. Top with 1 tablespoon of salted butter per cob and serve!
