Freezing Creamed Corn

August 19, 2015 by Morgan Leave a Comment

The very first sweet corn season that I lived here in South Dakota my mother in law showed me how to freeze sweet corn. And it is something that I have appreciated ever since. And the really nice thing is that it doesn’t take a lot of “tools” to do it. You don’t need a canner. You just need a few big pots, a sink full of ice, a knife, and some ziplock bags. If you haven’t done it before, check out this blog post. There is still plenty of time to freeze some for yourself, grab some from a roadside stand and get started.

One of our family’s favorite dishes is corn casserole. It’s a super easy recipe that I make that pretty much can go with anything- even tacos! In this dish the recipe calls for a can of creamed corn. So, I wanted to attempt making my own “creamed corn” this year. It would be great to be able to make this dish with everything I always have on hand in our house.

The recipe isn’t quite as “creamed” as it probably needs to be for corn casserole (I will let you know once I try it!) but it is really, really delicious just by itself. And I had a bowl for my supper before it cooled down- yum!

I met my husband for the first time face to face on the exit ramp that is now down the road from our home. I lived in South Dakota for a year before I was sure I was ready to do this whole "farm wife" thing...(read more!)
