I could almost taste that wonderful sweet corn. Looked fabulous. Sometimes we can get the Olaf Sweet Corn from Colorado about this time of year so I am looking for it. I was taught to cut off the cob, not quite down to the cob, then "scrape" the ears to get the "milk" then cook in a pan for eating immediately. I always do some off the cob and vacuum seal for winter and it doesn't last long! quiltinggrannaCarolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00626219983082188994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8732671860156934878.post-41619406542944955552011-08-05T09:23:32.143-05:002011-08-05T09:23:32.143-05:00How SWEET!

E...How I miss having a freezer full of sweet corn! Early on I was taught to cut the kernels from the ears, blanche it, then cool it as you mention. I remember years I had corn cooling in every sink and bath tub (inside another container). Then I learned that the blanching was not necessary at all and it was a whole new world! . 20 C. fresh sweet corn, cut from ears,2 C. sugar,<br />scant 1/4 C. canning salt. Let it set for a short time to bring up the juices; bag it and freeze it! I like it even better than when I blanched it. Sadly, I haven't had any for years!Mary L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03793698241724691925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8732671860156934878.post-59651945823397999312011-08-04T22:36:41.458-05:002011-08-04T22:36:41.458-05:00Just picked the first of the sweetcorn yesterday. ...Just picked the first of the sweetcorn yesterday. Not enough to freeze yet, but it's coming. I've frozen sweetcorn every summer for the last 40 yrs and I agree with you that you just can't buy any as good. Otherwise I wouldn't be doing it since it's almost always hot & humid when it's ready. Last year I cut it off the cob first and then used the microwave. Didn't save any time but didn't heat up the house as much.QuiltinLibraryLadyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16392850776832804028noreply@blogger.com
