This proves something that I�ve known for years�no matter how great a kitchen technique is, unless you use it regularly, you�ll forget about it. Usually, as soon as I get home from the store, I shuck the corn, and go from there, but as soon as I saw that ear go into Carl�s microwave, it all came back. Now I can forget about it all over again.
I�ve heard through the grapevine that some other food channels have also published this �hack� recently, but since I don�t watch anyone else, I can�t confirm those reports, but I couldn't have been the only one. The point is, it works. It works perfectly, and I hope you give it a try soon. Enjoy!
