Popcorn-on-the-cob
You've picked you popcorn on the cob at Squarecrows field, now to turn it into a delicious snack

01
Dry your cob
Pull back the husks, you can either completely remove these or pull them back in a bunch and use them to hang your cobs. If you remove them place the cob on a drying rack in the sun and turn frequently for 2-3 weeks to allow the kernels to dry fully
02
Microwave your cob
Place the entire corn cob into a brown paper bag, fold the bag over a couple of times at the top and twist the corners to ensure it stays closed during the popping process.


03
Microwave for 90s (1100W)
Lay the bag flat in your microwave and set timer for 90 seconds and press start (this is based on a 1100 watt microwave- you may need to adjust your times to match your microwave wattage). You don’t want to exceed 90-100 seconds in this method, or you will risk burning the dried cob.
04
Open carefully and enjoy
At around a minute you should start to hear the corn popping. Once the microwave has finished, take the bag out of the microwave carefully as it will be hot. Be careful of steam when opening the bag.
