    In the video it looks like the corn is covered with plastic wrap not a paper towel. Which should you use?

    You can use plastic wrap or cover it with a very big bowl, and then put it in the microwave.

    How to microwave frozen corn?
    Edwin ng
    Community Answer
    It the same as any other corn but it take longer due to it needing to be thawed first. Thaw for 4 minutes on defrost (or 30% power) and afterwards cook for 6 minutes.
