I bought 8 ears of corn on the cob at the store this morning. My kids both love it and so do I. I am wondering though, how do you cook yours? I usually just pop it in the microwave for a few minutes with the husk still on and then let it sit for a few minutes to cool off. How do you cook yours?

I usually put mine in boiling water the old fashioned way.
I've tried making it on the grill it never comes out right.

I don't like mine overcooked, so I do it this way on the electric stove: I get a pot of water to a full rolling boil, drop in the corn on the cob and wait for the water to come back to a boil. After about a minute, I turn the heat off and let it set until it quits simmering. The corn is done by then.

I have always boiled my corn. I had never seen anyone cook it in the microwave until last summer when we went to my husbands grandparents house and she cooked them in the microwave. I thought i ruined the taste of them. I prefer to boil them on the stove.
