Corn on the cob is a perennial favorite, equally at home on a barbeque or picnic paper plate or holiday china ( if yours isn't hidden in the wall!). We eat it year round.

In the summer, we wrap it in foil and toss it on the grill. Of course when the weather turns cold, we bring the task of cooking it up inside.

On busy weekday nights though, waiting for a big pot of water to boil isn't always in the cards. So fresh corn on the cob fell off our menu list.

psst- have you seen this cute corn set?

Then my sister in law came to visit and showed me her quick and easy trick to cook it with just one inch of water.

Not boiled since the ears aren't submerged and not really steamed since they're sitting in the water but it's perfect every time.
