Celebrity chef Khanh Ong has shared a cooking trick that changed his life and left him “mind-blown”.
The MasterChef Australia star, 30, took to Instagram on Friday to reveal a genius trick for cooking corn in the microwave.
He gave his seal of approval to a technique he found online that details how to easily remove the corn husk from the inner cob.
Khanh explained that whenever he microwaves corn, the tassel always sticks to the cob, making it difficult to remove.
However, he then said he would try a new trick and filmed himself simply cutting off the bottom of the husk before microwaving the corn.
Celebrity chef Khanh Ong has shared a life-changing cooking trick for making corn that left him ‘mind-blown’
When removing the cooked corn from the microwave, he was able to easily remove the cob from the husk, without any of the outer tassels sticking to the food.
Sharing his surprise that it actually worked, Khanh gushed that he was “blown away” and said that although it was an “obscure” problem, he was delighted to have a solution.
He said, ‘That’s so satisfying! I love this trick, I give it a 9/10, only because it still had a piece stuck on it, but it’s a pretty good trick!’
“I know it’s a small problem that most people won’t have to deal with, but it has changed my life.”
In a caption, he added: ‘Amazing. I know it’s not a big deal but I’m obsessed with this. Also today I’m going to make my Chinese style chicken and sweet corn soup. Hence the corn. Enjoy. Give me more tricks.’
The MasterChef Australia star, 30, took to Instagram on Friday to reveal a genius trick for cooking corn in the microwave, explaining how to easily remove the husk from the cob.
In the comments section, her fans quickly shared their joy with the hack and vowed to adopt it in their own kitchen.
They wrote: ‘Wow! In fact?! I can’t believe it worked so easily…;’ ‘Best trick ever (coming from a corn loving farmer!)!!!;’ ‘That is beautiful;’
‘This is life changing my God;’ ‘That’s brilliant!! Thank you!;’ “It was a 9.9/10 trick.”
However, other fans shared their amused reactions that Khanh hadn’t discovered the technique before, admitting that they had been doing it for years.
They said, ‘Where have you been?’ ‘Yeah! I do this. It is also found on the Internet. I use a kitchen towel to help wring it out.
Yes, this is a good one!! I do it too but I don’t bother with the water;’
Khanh admitted that he was amazed when he discovered that you could simply cut off the bottom of the corn while it was raw, before heating it in the microwave, and that the cob easily slid out.
‘I’ve been doing this for years! And you can microwave it without cutting off the end and then cut it when you’re done. It works very well, always.’
Khanh often shares her cooking tricks with her 311,000 followers and posts a series on Instagram called Table For One, where she shares her weeknight dinner recipes.
Khanh was a fan favorite on seasons 10 and 12 of MasterChef Australia, placing third and ninth respectively.
He then went on to compete in Australia’s Survivor Bloods vs. Water, and has his own show on SBS, Khanh Ong’s Wild Food.
