The Best Way to Cook Corn on the Cob

Ready for it??

Turn the oven on at 350
Once the oven is preheated, stick the corn cob in, with the husk on, and cook for 30 minutes.

That's it!! Trust me, I was unsure about it when I first heard of this trick, but the corn husk traps in the moisture, keeping the corn tender, and then the husk peels off much more easily once it's cooked. Plus, you don't have to worry about water squirting in your face once you bite into it if it were boiled. This is a perfect summer treat, especially when the corn is on sale at the grocery store for 3 or 4/$1.

Hello I am Rachel, a college girl who is often found in the kitchen. I know it's often hard for students to know how to cook, so here are some tutorials that students or anyone can use. I know the importance of staying healthy and having good, balanced meals, so I try to cook as healthily as possible. I also have a chronic condition called Cystic Fibrosis as well, so healthy eating is important to me. However, I also love to bake some sweets every now and then :) Many people may think it's impossible to not live off of Ramen noodles, spaghetti, tacos, etc while in college, so my purpose here is to show people it IS possible to stay on a budget and eat healthy, delicious meals! These usually have less ingredients and aren't too difficult. If I use another person's recipe, will provide the source from where it came from. Please post your feedback on the recipes you try!
