For the Creamed Corn:
- 4 Tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 1/2 cups frozen corn
- 2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 Tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 cup milk
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add corn and sauté for 4-5 minutes. Sprinkle flour and sugar over the mixture and stir well to coat the corn.
- Slowly pour in the milk while continuously stirring to prevent lumps from forming.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer. Stir frequently to prevent sticking.
- Continue to cook on low heat until the mixture thickens, usually about 5-7 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Serve hot as a side dish and enjoy your creamed corn.
Notes
- For a richer texture, you can substitute half-and-half or heavy cream for the milk, but be mindful of the increased calorie content.
- This recipe is also delicious with fresh corn; adjust cooking time accordingly by cutting kernels off the cob to measure around 3 cups.
- Recommended seasoning: 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper.
