Works a treat on Salmon fillets.
I need to try it on catfish too one of these years.

Nuking corn in an unopened husk really is the gods...
I share that hint as often as I can! :-)

I'll have to give it a whirl next time. I used to bake them in the Weber with
the husks on, but now usually de-husk , wrap in alfoil with some salt, pepper
and garlic butter, and bake like that.

They peel like a dream... No fighting to get all the silk off, and the
husk seals in the sweetness.

Just toss it into the sink directly out of the microwave and run cold
water over it so you can peel it. The cob retains enough heat to dry
itself in seconds so you can add butter or whatever else you like to
treat it with.

5 minutes for one ear, 7 minutes for two or three.

Thanks Om - I'll give this a try next time I have the corn. When I
shopped for today, the store I go to (Meijer) had the corn on the cob on
sale for $.19 each. And not a single ear existed there while I shopped. :-(

What was the nuke time?

I think 5 minutes is a bit too much but it depends on your microwave.
Otherwise, I am enthusiastic about nuking corn in rinsed husks.

I tend to agree. Most ppl cook the crap outta corn. Five to ten mins
boiling time for yellow corn is common. Yikes! The longer you cook corn, the
tougher it gets. I never cook corn for more than 90 secs. Tender,
yet cooked.

It does indeed depend on the microwave... :-) That timing works for
mine. Also depends on how well done you like your corn.
I have, in the past, received good reviews on this method. <g>
