Bring a pot of water to boil. Throw the corn in the water, put a lid on the pot, and turn off the heat. Leave it alone and check back in a while. Cooks perfectly.
Even better is putting it on the grill. Rub some butter on it or spray it with the spray butter. Nice and black in spots (it's caramalizing not burning).
Yum.

Please don't boil it.
Steam it. It will lose too many vitamins if you boil it.
Here's how.
Prepare the pot you will be steaming your corn on the cob in by adding water and bringing it to a boil.
Place the clean corn onto the steamer rack (or basket).
Place the rack (or basket) into the pot...
...and cover with a lid.
10 minutes with the vent closed cooks the corn in the Turbo Cooker, give it 10-15 minutes if you are using a steamer basket.
Remove the corn with tongs, it will be hot!
You're now ready to dress your corn on the cob however you would like.
The method I was brought up on is rubbing my ear of corn back and forth along a stick of butter while rolling it in order to soak the entire ear with delicious butter.... ....mmmmmmmmmmm.....
Then sprinkle with salt and pepper and you're ready to eat!
Make sure you've got some toothpicks handy!

First of all, Do Not put salt in the cooking water - salt toughens the corn.
Drop the ears into boiling water; cover and remove from heat. Let stand 20 minutes.

Lets see, put some honey in the water with the bob and some butter and boil it at least 30 minutes so it will be soft and sweet.
You can also microwave it in about 10 min.

The amount of time to let your corn boil ranges from 1-10 minutes depending on how soft you want your corn. I like it reallllly soft, so 10 minutes it is!

Take a zip lock bag and put about a tablespoon of water in it. Put your corn in a single layer and zip the bag ALMOST all the way. Leave a small bit open to escape steam. Lay in microwave and cook 8 min. Let sit for 5 min. Perfect corn everytime. I serve mine with garlic/chive butter.

Drop them in salted, boiling water. You can add some sugar to the water also, which will give it a nice flavor. Boil them for 15 - 20 minutes.

Since its frozen, I think about 10 minutes should be okay. You can check it and see if its done in 10 minutes. If not, boil it for about 3 minutes more.
