More Sweet Corn!

At four bucks for thirteen fresh-picked daily ears of bi-color sweet corn you absolutely have to gorge yourself on this candy-like treat but put some away.  Not seed corn - but sweet corn in the freezer.

Peel your ears and blanch in boiling water for seven minutes.  Don't crowd your ears.

Plunk them into a sink filled with cold tap water to chill.  After the cobs sink to the bottom of the sink fish them out to drain.


On a cutting board shear the corn from the cob using an exceedingly sharp chef knife.  Transfer to a colander to drain a bit.

Grab a beer and bag and shrink with a FoodSaver and freeze.

When the cold wind blows snow and sleet on my window pane I am going to be enjoying some of this summer goodness.
