Can Anyone Tell Me the Cooking/Steaming Time for Corn on the Cob in the Dcb?

[DebPC]

Anyone know how long of a cooking/steaming time?

I know there are instructions in the consultant created DCB cookbook.

Side note: Am I the only one who struggles using our Corn Cob Knobs? I can hardly ever get them to screw in good enough. My mom and sister aren't happy with them either.

I usually do 2-3 minutes per ear of corn. I always put about a 1/4 cup of water in the bottom too. I don't have problems with the nobs. I cut both ends off the corn and screw them in! I just have a hard time keeping track of the little buggers!

Try cutting off the tip of the pointy end of the ear to make a flat surface, then screwing it in.

Made the corn in the DCB tonite for the first time. About 16 minutes on high for 5 ears of corn, added the 1/4 cup of water.
Soooo good!

That's a long time! I have always done 5 ears, 1/4 cup water, 10 minutes, perfect. That's the recipe I give everyone and have never had anyone say they needed more time. Maybe it's our corn?

They were right out of the fridge- I wonder if that is why it took a bit longer. Do you let them steam after?

 

[pchockeymom]

that may be it, I never put my corn in the frig. They usually do steam only because we're getting everything else together, but I don't purposely do it.
