Preparation

Step 1

Cut the raw corn kernels off of the cob into a large bowl. In a Dutch oven pot, combine the corn kernels, water, sugar, salt, and butter. *Do NOT cover!!* Bring the mixture to a boil or until the bubbles rise just about the corn kernels. Remove the corn from the heat and allow the corn to cool. *The corn should cool enough to place your finger into the center of the pot and the corn will not burn your finger.* Place the corn in freezer bags and freeze until you are ready to use. To heat up the corn: Place the corn in a pot and bring to a boil. Serve warm.
