Notes
Note:
Two ears should yield a generous cup of corn kernels. You can cook fresh corn a couple of ways. You can grill ears of shucked corn on a grill, over medium heat, turning the corn so that all sides become lightly brown, about 6 minutes total. Let cool, and cut the kernels off.Or, steam the shucked ears for 5 minutes in a small amount of simmering water, then drain, cool, and slice the kernels from the cob.For frozen, follow package directions. For canned, drain and rinse. If you want to heat either frozen or canned kernels in a hot skillet for a few minutes to brown slightly that adds additional flavor and visual appeal.
