Ingredients
- 4 ears Fresh corn on the cob
- 1 cup Water
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (optional, for serving)
- 1 teaspoon Salt (optional, for serving)
Directions
Step 1
Husk the corn and remove all the silk strands. Rinse the ears of corn under cold water to ensure they are clean.
Step 2
Add 1 cup of water to the pressure cooker insert. Place a steamer basket or trivet inside the pot.
Step 3
Arrange the ears of corn on the trivet or in the steamer basket. It's okay if they are stacked slightly, as long as they fit in the pot without touching the lid.
Step 4
Secure the pressure cooker lid and set the valve to the sealing position.
Step 5
Select the 'Manual' or 'Pressure Cook' function and set the timer for 2 minutes on high pressure.
Step 6
Once the cook time is complete, perform a quick release by carefully moving the valve to the venting position. Wait for the pressure to fully release before opening the lid.
Step 7
Use tongs to carefully remove the corn from the pressure cooker. Serve immediately with butter and a sprinkle of salt if desired.
