Lightly rinse the corn husk and pat dry, put them in freezer zip-lock bags and freeze. For quick cook, take out of husk, put in dish and microwave (1500 watts) for 3 minutes for each ear of corn. :-)

I've tried it everyway that's mentioned, to me the best is husk, par boil, strip off cob, put in vacuum seal bags, freeze to the point the juice is too thick to flow, and vacuum seal. Ruined a few vacuum sealers with the juice flowing into the machine. Haven't tried the with husk on and vacuum sealed though.

if that question is for me yes I’m pretty much done everything when it comes to corn. We raised sweetcorn here on the farm. 😊

I’ve tried most everything and it still seems to end up a slight bit gummy versus fresh. Still tastes good. We just put 5-6 ears each in a Ziploc freezer bag now versus vac sealing. Generally freeze a couple hundred ears a year. Pretty much what we do. Leave the husk on, cut off the ends. We put 4 ears to a Ziploc brand bag. Take a straw and suck as much air out you can. Freeze. It may not be fresh, but in january its pretty darn good. We like Honey select.
