What is the best way to cook corn-on-the-cob.?
I have just put 2 in the microwave smothered in butter and cooked for 2 mins one side then turnt them over and cooked for a further 2 mins. well they are still rock hard. where have i gone wrong? I got this info from a online cookbook.
METHOD OF COOKING
TO BOIL
Remove the husk & silk, place corn in a large pot, cover with water, boil covered for 3-5 minutes. This is probably the best way for making a quick dinner especially if you are cooking a lot of corn. Not a bad way to cook corn as long as you don’t over cook. Corn should still be a crisp. For sweet corn add 1 Tbsp sugar (or more) to the water.
TO STEAM
Remove the husk & silk, steam covered 8-10 minutes.
TO MICROWAVE
Leave husk on (silk removed) & microwave on high, in a microwave safe dish, covered, 3-4 minutes. Let stand 3 minutes in the microwave. (1 ear)
Husk & silk removed, buttered, in a microwave dish, covered, 4-6 minutes, let stand 3 minutes in the microwave. (2 ears)
To cook 4 ears use the same procedure as above & cook 10-12 minutes, standing 3 minutes.
GRILLED
Husk & silk removed, wrapped in foil or placed in a foil pack, grill over medium coals 15-20 minutes turning a couple times.
BEST In the husk, silk removed, using a medium-high heat place on the grill & cook turning often until the husk is lightly browned on all sides, about 10-15 minutes.
ROASTED
Husk & silk removed, buttered & wrapped in foil. Bake at 375 F for 30 minutes. Can be baked along with potatoes or your roast.

Microwave Chemistry $68.51 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Microwave chemistry is the science of applying microwave irradiation to chemical reactions. Microwaves act as high frequency electric fields and will generally heat any material containing mobile electric charges, such as polar molecules in a solvent or conducting ions in a solid. Polar solvents are heated as their component molecules are forced to rotate with the field and lose energy in collisions. Semiconducting and conducting samples heat when ions or electrons within them form an electric current and energy is lost due to the electrical resistance of the material. Microwave heating in the laboratory began to gain wide acceptance following papers in 1986, although the use of microwave heating in chemical modification can be traced back to the 1950s. Although occasionally known by such acronyms as MEC (MicrowaveEnhanced Chemistry) or MORE synthesis (Microwaveorganic Reaction Enhancement), these acronyms have had little acceptance outside a small number of groups.
