The solution? Microwave the corn on the cob in the husk. The process is pretty straightforward. Place the ears on a microwave ...

Cook for 3-5 minutes. Steam: Shuck outer husks and silks from corn. In a steamer, add 1 inch of water to the bottom and bring to a boil. Place corn in a basket above boiling water for 7-10 minutes.

This method was, again, super easy. All I did was stick the corn (still in its husk) in the microwave for four minutes. Then I used a towel to pull the husk back, which revealed perfectly cooked corn.
