Corn on the cob with no silk…this is so cool I want to buy corn just to try it. 4Min. per cob, 2 cobs would be a total of 8 min. in the microwave.


This is the neatest trick I have seen in some time. If it does what he demonstrates,

I have never been so glad my sound card has gone t*ts up than watching this old duffer. Talk about 'padding it out'.

The information in the title could be reduced to ten seconds.

Cheers, Tony.

I'd love to know how he got them into that small television. And why did he dial my telephone number?

I know these Youtube things are a bit naff but has anyone actually tried it. That's what I want to know.

I don't bother buying sweetcorn as it is always disappointing - even prefer to go without when the mice get to my crop first; however this looks a good tip to me as the silks are annoying to remove.

I might just indulge to test this out - won't eat the result just for scientific interest. Doesn't really say but I'm assuming that 4 mins on high would also cook the kernels a bit. So do you reduce the boil time or does it cook them enough or no effect on them??

Anyone know :?:

I think it might be a bit of trial and error Westi.
Don't think I have ever bought corn either but as you say might indulge just once. I like the idea of it popping out.
