HOW LONG WILL IT KEEP?
Mirai® will last 7 - 10 days in the refrigerator with the husks left on.
HOW TO PREPARE - BOILING
Remove husk and silk: place in boiling water to cover amount of corn; boil 2-1/2 - 3 minutes only.
HOW TO PREPARE MICROWAVING
Remove husk and silk and rinse with water; lightly wrap or cover ear(s) with paper towel or napkin; cook at full power for 2 minutes per ear. It is advised that you turn the corn over once - half way through the cook time for uniform cooking.
GRILLING
Soak ears in cold water for one hour; tear off any long flag leaves and remove tip silk that is exposed beyond the husk; place ears single high on hot grill; rotate ears 1/4 turn often until husk is blackened and kernels are darker yellow; presoaking the corn will help steam the corn for excellent flavor.
FREEZING
Remove husk and silk; blanch corn by placing corn in boiling water for 2 minutes; remove from pot; cut kernels from cob; cool quickly; package in freezer bags in desired amounts; place in freezer.
