Raise your hand if you’re enjoying all the juicy n’ plump sweet corns.
Oh how I love sweet corn, especially right-off-the-field-fresh ones! I’m patiently waiting for my husband to bring me loads of freshly picked corn on the cob. He had planted not-so-small field of the most amazing sweet corn variety. And here in ND, we harvest them a bit late compared to the rest of the country. It’s totally worth the wait though!
But until then I’m enjoying some sweet corn from the grocery store.
Besides these corn salsa and corn fritters, Garrat also loves creamed corn. Last year, I perfected this stovetop method and thought I’d share it with you. At first, I thought it’s too simple, but then again simple is the best! And I’d never withhold the best and simplest recipes from you. 🙂
This method is truly simple and comes together in just 10 minutes! And did I mention you only need 3 ingredients? Sweet corn, cream and cornstarch. That’s it! Oh and a little bit of salt, but that doesn’t count, right?
My husband actually showed me this method for creamed corn and I tweaked the ratio of ingredients, so that we have perfectly consistent result every time.
I’ve made this recipe with both fresh and frozen sweet corns, both works great! But I have no experience with canned corn, but I don’t see any reason why it wouldn’t work.
I really hope you give this a try. And please let me know how it turns out for you if you try it. I love hearing your feedback!
Thanks for stopping by!

Just tried this tonight from leftover corn off the cob. De-lish! My hubby is a huge creamed corn fan. He likes it a little less thick, so I also added a little milk. I’ll definitely be making it again!
