The best way to cook our corn is to:
1. Fill a large pot with a couple inches of water and a dash of salt. Bring to a boil
2. Add your shucked cobs to the pot, cover, and leave for 3-5 minutes.
3. Remove the cobs, slather with butter, salt and pepper and enjoy!
You only want to warm the corn up. If you cook it too long, you cook all the sugars out of your corn and lose that sweet flavour.
If you want alternative ways to cook corn - such as barbecuing - check out our blog.
Use slightly immature cobs with well-developed kernels. You know they're well-developed because they'll be firm but not tough. Husk and de-silk.
For corn on the cob: Blanch the corn for 5-8 minutes in boiling water. Cool, drain and package in freezer bags or individually with freezer-safe wrap.
For niblet corn (removed from the cob): Blanch on the cob for about 90 seconds in boiling water. Cool thoroughly, then strip kernels from the cob and pack flat in a freezer bag or container before putting it in the freezer. Once it is frozen, you can reposition it or put it in a different container. You want to freeze it flat so the kernels don't clump together and make it harder to use when it's time to eat.
