Corn on the cob in the rice cooker

Corn on the cob is a special treat around our house. We try to avoid genetically modified foods and finding non-GMO corn can be a challenge. Happily, it has been showing up at our local farmers market lately.

If we are barbecuing, we like to remove the silks, tuck in some butter and seasoned salt, close the husks, and wrap the ears in aluminum foil. Then we toss them on the grill.

Otherwise, we use our rice cooker. Shuck the corn, put about 1" of water in rice cooker pot, put in the steamer basket, and any other vegetables desired. Zucchini from our garden was perfect. Close the lid and steam for 10 minutes. Delicious!
