This easy side appeals to the fans of sweet and savory! The microwave merges the flavors of sweet corn with the toasty, nutty flavor of brown butter and fragrant fresh thyme. Free up another rack in the oven by preparing this dish ahead of time, pop it in the microwave just before dinnertime, and serve all in the same dish.

[[video-wattage]]

To find your microwave’s wattage, look at the front panel, the side of the door, in the back, in the user manual, or Google the model number. If both an input and output wattage are listed, use the output.

Wattage translates to how powerful the microwave is. The higher the wattage, the faster your food will cook. The lower the wattage, the longer the cook time.

When in doubt, start with less time — you can always add more.

Serving suggestions & tips

  • For a vegan-friendly alternative, substitute butter and milk for plant-based alternatives.
  • Top the creamy corn dish with crumbled bacon, fried shallots or toasted breadcrumbs.
  • Microwave ovens vary, even with the same wattages. Adjust cooking times as needed.

Recipe notes

  • Reheating Instructions: Cover the Anyday dish with the lid and microwave 3-5 minutes, or until the center is hot. To check, insert a fork in the center and carefully touch it. If the fork is hot, the potatoes are ready to be served.
  • Microwave ovens vary, even with the same wattages. Adjust cooking times as needed.
