Veritas CCXLVII

Today's Truth:  You can enjoy fresh corn on the cob all year!  Simply freeze individual ears wrapped in foil or airtight freezer bags.  When ready to enjoy, thaw then microwave the corn using the following method:

FRESH CORN ON THE COB (Microwave method)
Cook fresh corn on the cob in microwave with husks and silk intact. They will cook in their own natural moisture. 
Wrap in a damp paper towel. Turn ears over and rearrange after 1/2 cooking time.

Cooking Guideline:
1 ear - 1 1/2 - 3 minutes
2 ears - 4 to 6 minutes
3 ears - 7 to 8 minutes
4 ears - 9 to 11 minutes
 
When ears are hot to the touch, remove and wrap in kitchen towel or foil.Let stand at least 5 minutes. Remove husks and silk (which is easier than when cold) and serve with melted butter and your choice of seasoning.
