Cream Corn
Author: 
Recipe type: Side Dish
Serves: 8
 
Ingredients
  • 32 oz frozen whole corn
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup nonfat milk
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • FOR RUE:
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons flour
Instructions
  1. In a large stock pot, cook corn according to the package and drain water. As a shortcut, I usually just pop the bag of frozen corn into the microwave for a few minutes and then add it to the stock pot with the heavy whipping cream and milk.
  2. Bring corn mixture to a boil, reduce heat and add salt, sugar and black pepper.
  3. Make the rue: In a small bowl, melt butter in the microwave and then add flour, mixing until incorporated.
  4. Add rue to boiling corn mixture and stir until it thickens, about 10 minutes, until the cream corn is a smooth silky-looking texture. Serve immediately.
Notes
This dish can be made a day in advance and stored in the fridge. It reheats well.
