  3. Put it on the burner and bring to boil.
  4. Keep the frozen corn ears directly in the water.
  5. The water is going to stop boiling for some time, depending on the number of corn ears inserted. Let it boil again.
  6. Now time the corn on the cob. It should be ready to eat in around 10 minutes.

Microwave

  2. Fill 1/4th cup of water and pour it in the dish.

  5. The general standard is approximately 3 minutes for one corn and 2 minutes extra for each extra corn.

Grilling

  1. Grilling is another option for preparing the frozen corn on the cob. Preheat the grill to around medium.
  2. Apply some butter on each corn, which is essential for grilling any food.
  3. Add salt and pepper according to taste. This can be done later too.
  4. Grill for approximately 30 minutes or till heated evenly.

Baking

  3. Keep a sheet in the bottom of the oven to catch all the dripping butter.
  4. Bake for around 30 minutes.
