Better Than Grannies Creamed Corn Recipes

GRANDMA MOORE'S CREAMED CORN

Steps:

• In a large skillet, (seasoned cast iron does well here) cook the bacon over medium-high heat until crisp. Turn off the heat and transfer the bacon to a paper towel lined plate. Reserve the drippings in the pan.
• On a cutting board, cut the stalk ends of the corn cobs to make a flat surface; stand them up and shave the corn from the cobs with a sharp chef's knife. Return the skillet to medium-low heat, and add the corn kernels. With the back of the knife, firmly scrape the cobs over a shallow plate to extract as much liquid (milk) as possible and add it to the skillet.
• Season corn lightly with salt and pepper and cook until broken down and creamy, about 30 to 45 minutes, stirring often; add water if the pan gets too dry.
• Serve warm or at room temperature.

CREAM CORN LIKE NO OTHER

Steps:

• In a skillet over medium heat, combine the corn, cream, salt, sugar, pepper and butter. Whisk together the milk and flour, and stir into the corn mixture. Cook stirring over medium heat until the mixture is thickened, and corn is cooked through. Remove from heat, and stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted. Serve hot.

CREAMED CORN - BETTER THAN GRANNIE'S RECIPE

Steps:

• In a saucepan over medium heat, sweat the onion in butter and salt until translucent. After cutting/stripping the kernels off the cobs, use the dull backside of the knife to scrape any remaining pulp or milk from the cobs. Add the corn and pulp mixture to the onions in the saucepan and cook over medium high heat until the juice from the corn has tightened. Add the rosemary and sprinkle the corn with the sugar and turmeric. Stir constantly for about 2 minutes. Sprinkle the cornmeal onto the corn and whisk to combine well. Add the heavy cream and cook until the corn has softened, about 2 - 3 minutes. Remove the rosemary and season with freshly ground pepper.
