- In today's video I am showing you how our family has froze sweet corn for the past 30 years.
ITEMS NEEDED: Corn *Knife *Pot *Water *Ice Freezer bags of your choice *Some type of cooking device *Stirring utensil
Step 1: Obtain the amount of sweet corn you would like to freeze. 4 ears of Broyan's Corn will make you approximately one quart freezer bag full.
Step 2: Husk the corn and get as many of the hairs off as possible
Step 3: Cut the corn off the cob. Try to get as much of the corn off as possible without cutting into the actual cob.
Step 4: Turn the knife around and scrape around the cob to extract all of the access sweet juice from the cob
Step 5: Pour approximately half an inch of water into the pot of your choice that will fit the corn, then dump the corn you cut off the cob into the pot
Step 6: Now is the time to add salt, pepper, butter etc. if you would like (we do not do that)
Step 7: Turn the burner on your stove to high, then stir the corn often to keep it from burning to the bottom of the pot
Step 8: Keep an eye on the corn until it comes to a boil, then proceed to let it boil for 3 minutes
Step 9: Now is the time to get your tub ready with ice water because as soon as it's done boiling for 3 minutes you need to take it right off the burner and its needs to go right into the ice water so that it does not cook any longer.
Step 10: Set the boiling pot of corn into the ice water and stir repeatedly to evenly cool down all the corn
Step 11: Get whatever size freezer bag fits you or your family and fold the bag down so that the zip-loc part of the bag will not get touched by corn. IMPORTANT - (if corn gets in the zipper of the bag it will not seal right and could go bad in the freezer)
Step 12: Lay your bags down in something flat ( for example a cookie sheet) and place them in the freezer until they are hard
Step 13: Now you have wonderful sweet corn that you and your family can enjoy for years to come!
There is NOTHING better than sweet corn! I know it is wrong, but I could seriously eat one of those bags at a sitting by myself! Thanks for sharing.
Well done!
Even the dogs get to enjoy the corn 🌽
Awesome video! Thanks for posting. ❤️🌽
Thank you so much! We been shucking corn all day and want to freeze it - perfect
I enjoy all your videos!!! They are fantastic. Thank you for sharing and God bless you all
Great video! Used this last night and will be finishing up cooking it off and bagging today.
Interesting! Gives me lots of ides! :) Thank you!
Wow we do this completely opposite. We boil on the cob, ice bath, take off cob and then bag. Thanks for sharing your way :)
Exactly!
We cut it off the cob and freeze it raw.
@@DCMae Hey, whatever works for ya. We've done that but don't like it as well.
That’s very interesting 😉 oh your videos are good😉 and I like the wink🤓
Thank you! 😃
Wow, i always do whole ears then cut off the cob after blanching…but i think your way would be alot easier
Great video!!!!
great tip. Have you ever boiled it on the cob then iced it down, cut from cob, bagged??
We have not but that’s something I’d like to try!
Currently doing two bushels now. We use an electric knife.
Thanks for the video. One question: I may have prepped more corn than i have tome to cook and bag today. Is there anything i can do so that i can finish it over the next 2 days, a bit at a time? Or is it a lost cause if i cant finish today?
It should be ok over the next two days if you have any doubt you can put it in a bowl in the refrigerator. I hope this helps! Thank you for watching 😊

So if you boil it for only 3 minutes, then freeze... then when you are ready to thaw and eat, do you have to cook it some more? Or just heat it because it’s fully cooked?
We place bag and all in boiling water just till it's hot. Their way is hard. We boil the corn for 5 minutes on the cob. Then directly into ice water until cool. Then onto towels until thoroughly dry. Then cut off the cob and bag it. Been doing it this way for 30 years. And it tastes like you just picked it a year or two later.
How do you cook when ready to use? Dethaw or cook frozen? Thnx
Dethaw then cook, thanks for watching!!
Just the same way you would with store bought frozen corn. It really only takes a couple of minutes for corn to be crisp cooked, which is the best way to eat it. Between the time cooked before freezing and the heating up after, it's cooked plenty.
i learn something
what about a food saver used for corn in stead of freezer bags?
I’ve tried that and it just too much juice for a food saver.
@@tonyaatteberryCould you freeze them in bag before sealing to avoid the juices? Wondering if that would work.
You can make your bag a little bigger and freezer it first. Once totally frozen cut the top of the bag and vacuum and seal the bag for longer storage.
How much would a bag of corn like that sell for
We actually do not sell that in our store we just make it for ourselves. That would be a great idea though!
Hey
