We ran out of sweet corn about a month ago we bought some can corn from the store well let's just say we won't run out again.

How do you store it? We like corn as a side dish a lot and have a farm stand nearby that has some great stuff, but never thought about stashing some. Anyone who remembers the sweet corn from the 2019 Tman feed at the WTA rondy knows what I'm talking about with that corn.

All you have to do is cut it off the cob put in freezer bags you will have a hard time eating any other.

Our family likes to grow sweet corn. Nice to see another sweet corn enthusiast on trapperman.

Cook it first, right? I like to make big batches in a cooler with boiling water.

We blanch ours, then vacuum seal. It would keep for years in the freezer, but gets eaten first. Bodacious, Kandy Korn, and Jubilee are my favorites.

We always make sure we have 75 quarts froze every fall. Usually don't run out since it's just the two of us now. Kids call boughten corn the fake stuff. Mike

On our last dozen bags. Had a variety that didn't jive well being planted to others an ran us short last season. Back to the old tried an Tru peaches n cream. Ambrosia.bodacious.incredible

Add another variety and you have the big 3. Incredible, Bodacious, and Kandy Korn. Once a person eats Incredible and Bodacious, they are fussy about sweet corn.

I add an early maturing variety and plant all 4 varieties on the same day. Then I can harvest each variety for approximately a week, so approximately 4 weeks of fresh corn. Back in 1995 I sold corn for $3 a dozen roadside. People thought it was outrageous until they tried it. I sold out every day.

Yup, try gotta have it from gourneys

I do 40-50 ears at a time depending upon size with my 30 qt. turkey fryer. (have never put a turkey in it yet. Boil for about 15 minutes, eat some fresh and cut with a knife and freeze the rest in pint bags. I plant 3 different maturities the first planting and then do full season varieties about 2-3 weeks later until early July which gives me corn into October.

Yup,store bought can corn is nothing like home canned corn.

Canned corn from the supermarket is only fit for catching mushy stocked trout. Nothing more.

Got mine planted 3 days ago, NK 199 as far as I'm concerned we like it the best. I have tried other kinds but I still come back to NK 199.We put up around 50-60 bags a year, it never gets old for a meal.

Yes tiguy all we do is cut it off the cob put it in freezer bags my wife's family has done it for years . it's the best we don't rinse it after cut off cob. Don't heat it any.

Don't remember the last time we planted anything but Bodacious or Incredible. Did plant lot's of Sugar Buns in the 80's and early 90's. Mike

I'm still confused about the process of storing it. Cook it, cut it off the cob and freeze it in plastic bags? Then just warm it up in the microwave?

Tlguy, i boil it in a turkey fryer pot to blanch it for a few minutes, then throw it in a cooler of ice to shock it, when the center of the cob is cool, put them in plastic bags and freeze it, i dont cut mine off the cob, hope this helps
