Pressure Cooker Corn on the Cob

It's that time of year, when the corn is cheap and absolutely amazing! We don't eat a ton of corn in our family because it is a trigger food for one of my daughters arthritis BUT corn on the cob is something we absolutely cannot avoid during this time of year. Growing up the only way we had corn on the cob was boiled in a big pot on the stove. Generally, that is how I still cook it, but I have been trying to branch out a bit more with my Pressure Cooker and found that it is SUPER easy to make corn on the cob and doesn't take long at all. One thing I like about using the Pressure Cooker is that it's kind of like the "set it and forget it" type idea, whereas, when you cook the corn on the stove you have to keep turning it so that one side doesn't get overdone while another side is barely cooked.

4 ears of corn (husks and silks removed)
1 cup water
butter (optional)
salt and pepper to taste

1. Pour 1 cup of water into the inner pot.
2. Place either a metal steamer basket or a metal trivet in the bottom of the pot.
3. Place your ears of corn either in the basket or on the trivet by alternating the direction of the corn ears (place a little end at the top, then a big end, then a little end, etc.). It is okay to stack your corn if needed.
4. Close the lid and make sure that the steaming release valve is set to the sealing position.
5. Press the "manual" or "pressure cook" button and adjust the cook time for 2 minutes (3 minutes if using frozen corn).
6. When the cook time has ended, quick release the pressure in your cooker by turning the steam release valve to the venting position (DO THIS CAREFULLY SO YOU DON'T STEAM BURN YOURSELF!!!)
7. When all of the steam has been released and the pin drops down, you can open the lid.
8. Serve immediately with butter, salt and pepper or your favorite toppings!

**Randi's Side Notes**
~ If I have corn that has either really big kernels or the ears are very thick I will set my cook time for 3 minutes to ensure that the corn doesn't have to much crispness to it.
~ In a 6 quart pot you should be able to fit roughly 6 ears of corn. If you have an 8 quart pot, you can fit up to 9 and will want to increase the amount of water you put in from 1 cup to 1 and a half cups.
