We are empty-nesters, so preparing smaller portions of food has now become our habit. We love great corn-on-the-cob, but the typical way of preparing it by boiling it in a pot of water is a hassle!

Our friends Bruce and Diane saved the day when Bruce stopped by to share his fresh harvest of sweet corn from their garden. As great as that was, it was even better that Bruce shared his and Diane’s method of preparing a couple of ears at a time!

Simply place 2 ears of shucked corn in a ZipLok® or bread bag with a couple of teaspoons of water and cook for 5 minutes. DON’T seal the bag, but fold it over so as to retain the moisture/steam in the bag. When the time is up, open the bag carefully and slide corn out and enjoy with your favorite condiments! Thanks to Bruce and Diane!

If you don’t like the idea of using a plastic bag (we’ve never had any problems with food-grade bags, but it’s YOUR choice!), here’s an alternative paper towel method. Wrap your shucked ear of corn in a moistened paper towel so that it is entirely wrapped. You’ll need to cook 3 to 4 minutes per ear of corn being cooked. Unwraps and dress the corn with butter and salt, or other toppings such as lime juice, butter, and cilantro!

We really enjoy simple eating, preparing meals with only a few ingredients, so you can taste each thing in the recipe. This is one of the simplest of all, and don’t you just love it when you can JUST DO IT YOURSELF?
