  1. Boy, this is the best way to have corn. This tastes SO fresh. I ended up making a bigger batch of it the next day and freezing it for this winter. Can't wait to have this when everyone else is eating that old canned stuff! The only work to it is cutting the corn off the ears, after that it's a cinch. Thanks Gay! Good!!
     
  2. I used Olathe corn which is very sweet, this dish was almost like a dessert it was SOOO GOOD. Thanks for the heads up on a great cooking method for corn.
     
  3. My husband and I just love corn.Off the cob or on the cob,really doesn't matter. I have prepared yor sauteed corn and it's sooooo good. My husband is a retired farmer but we still have a garden and he plants corn ( the name of the corn is "ambrosia") in three week intervals so we have it for a long time. He enjoys supplying the widows in our small community with fresh corn every year. It really is a hobby to him. BCD
     
  4. Didn't change a thing! Why would you? The flavor of the fresh corn is great!
     
  5. I bought some fresh ears of corn from a local farmer and came to GK for something a little different than what I usually do....and happened upon this recipe. It was a BIG hit. DH loved it. The man who doesn't eat veggies came back for seconds. I only had 4 ears of corn but now I wish that I'd had a least 8. The cooking is fast and easy. The natural sweetness of the corn came through. This is definitely a keeper. Thanks for sharing!

I'm really just learning how to cook, but I hope that my skills at eating will really guide me in this endeavor. ;-) I think that sharing recipes on the internet is better than any cookbook. Of course, I founded Recipezaar, so I might be a little biased.
