Sweet Corn is such a filling snack. It can be boiled, steamed or grilled and seasoned with spices. I always buy fresh and frozen Corn Ears to satisfy my cravings. The ear is a collection of kernels on the cob. Corn on the Cob refers to cooked ear of corn. I microwave corn cobs when I am making 1 or 2 cobs just for the 2 of us. If you are preparing larger number of cobs, then you can boil it instead of microwaving.
