Deviled Corn Easy Microwave Fix Recipes

THE EASIEST WAY TO MICROWAVE CORN ON THE COB

Steps:

• Put the corn in the microwave: Place the corn in the microwave, do not remove the husk. Microwave the corn on the high setting for 4 minutes. Note that every microwave is different. If this timing over-cooks the corn in your microwave, reduce it to 2 to 3 minutes the next time.
• Cut the bottom off the stem end: Use a kitchen towel or pot holder to remove corn from the microwave (it's hot!) Cut off the bottom of the corn, stem end, about one row of corn in from the stem.
• Remove the husk: Slip off the husk and silk. That's it!

DEVILED CORN

• Heat the corn in the butter, add mustard, salt and pepper.
• Add cheese.

• Note: Time to prepare is if you are using fresh corn and must cut off cob and cook, if using canned corn preparation time will be much less.

• TO SERVE: Remove bay leaves, turn out onto a serving plate & slice. Serve w/French bread & a green salad.
