5 In 10: Five Ways To Cook Fresh Corn Under Ten Minutes

Supersweet Corn sets new records for cooking speed!  Here are five great methods.

Skillet-Steam   In a skillet, bring 1 inch of water to a boil. Add husked corn in a single layer. When the water returns to a boil, reduce heat, cover and cook until hot, about 3 minutes; drain.  (Corn can also be cooked on a steamer rack, over boiling water, about 3 minutes.)

Boil   In a deep saucepan, bring 4 inches of water to a boil. Add husked corn. When the water returns to a boil, cook until hot, about 2 minutes; drain.

Roast   Preheat oven to 500° F. In a shallow baking pan, place husked ears. Roast until corn is hot and some kernels turn golden brown, about 7 minutes.

Grill   Prepare a medium-hot fire. Grill husked corn, turning once or twice, until hot and some kernels turn golden brown, about 5 minutes.

Microwave   In the microwave, place no more than four ears of husked corn, wrapped individually in damp paper towels. Microwave on high power until hot, about 2 minutes per ear.
