Ingredients

– 4 tablespoons unsalted butter – 1 (1-pound) bag frozen whole kernel sweet corn (about 3 cups) – 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour – 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional) – 1 cup half-and-half – 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste – Ground black pepper, to taste

Melt 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter (or use oil or bacon grease) in a large skillet over medium heat. Add a 1-pound bag of frozen whole kernel sweet corn (about 3 cups) to the skillet. Sauté for 4-5 minutes.

1

 Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar over the corn. Stir well to coat the corn evenly with the flour and sugar.

2

Slowly pour in 1 cup of half-and-half (or choose whole milk, heavy cream, etc.) and add salt while continuously stirring. This creates a rich and creamy base for your cream corn recipe.

3

Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Allow it to simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Continue to cook on low heat until it thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

4

Sprinkle some black pepper for extra flavor, and serve your cream corn as a side dish.
