For multiple ears of corn, increase the cooking time by approximately 2 minutes per additional ear. Cooking times may vary depending on microwave wattage, so adjust accordingly. Feel free to experiment with other seasonings! A sprinkle of chili powder, a squeeze of lime juice, or a dusting of Parmesan cheese can add exciting new flavors. For best results, use fresh, high-quality corn. The sweetness of the corn will shine through with this simple cooking method.
