Cream-Style Corn

• 12 ears fresh sweet corn, such as Truckers Favorite or Merritt
• 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter
• Salt to taste

1. Shuck the corn and remove all the silks.
2. Wash and drain the corn.
3. Shave just the tips of the kernels using a very sharp knife or vegetable peeler.
4. Cut away from you, allowing the tips to fall into a large bowl.
5. Using the back of the knife, scrape the creamy juice from the kernels into the same bowl.
6. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat and add the corn.
7. Cook the creamed corn for 20 minutes, stirring often, until thickened.
8. Add water if the mixture becomes too thick.
9. Season with salt to taste.
10. Be sure you use juicy corn for this; otherwise, you wont get the right creamy texture.
11. If fresh creamed corn is a favorite, you might want to think about purchasing a corn cutter, which removes the tips and juice with one motion.
12. You can order one online at www.homesteadharvest.com.
