The very best corn ,family loves it .l don't agree with the one reviewer you must put the sugar & butter in and cook it a little .otherwise it will not be sweet creamy and o so good it will be just plain old frozen corn compliments to the creator of this recipe .<\/p>","CommentId":9,"DateRated":"07\/19\/2016 21:50","GUID":"e2df5cb057d44a528cd70a4a99b1afdf","MemberId":8178460,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Fcbartlow","SubmittedDate":"07\/19\/2016 21:50"},{"Comment":"
I have misplaced this recipe on Yahoo! Here it is, this is the best and only way to freeze our corn. Making this for friends in Arizona who wants to take some back home at Christmas time, promised them I'd make it for them if they leave room in their cooler full of our delicious Iowa CORN fed beef!<\/p>","CommentId":10,"DateRated":"06\/29\/2015 19:33","GUID":"62e0c5264a6f43f291d1c38284852bec","MemberId":4017899,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"krisyp1983","SubmittedDate":"06\/29\/2015 19:33"},{"Comment":"
I have used the recipe for years and given the recipe to more people than I can count. Everyone that tries freezing corn this way says it is the best. We grow more sweet corn that we can use so we are giving it away in feed bags full. People come back year after year for corn to freeze using this recipe. One suggestion---I cut my corn off of the cob outside, that way there is no mess in the house. Use the picnic table, a TV tray or whatever to save splatters in the house.<\/p>
My husband just loves corn this way. It is the next best thing to fresh corn!<\/p>","CommentId":11,"DateRated":"06\/28\/2015 09:59","GUID":"CCC5521D3EE50CE5B8A766AC11AF76F2","MemberId":47124,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"redcow","SubmittedDate":"06\/28\/2015 09:59"},{"Comment":"
Can't wait to try this way. We did ears of corn last summer. I have a Seal-a-Meal. We steamed the corn under a damp towel 4 ears at a time in the microwave-minus the silks. 2mins. Removed the husks put in the bags sealed & froze it. Enjoyed the fruit of labor until Christmas. So good.<\/p>","CommentId":12,"DateRated":"08\/12\/2014 14:09","GUID":"9471059697CD4DECAF4E86C2D32893EE","MemberId":4289123,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"nancye49","SubmittedDate":"08\/12\/2014 14:09"},{"Comment":"
I like a little crunch to my frozen corn and boiling for 5 to 7 minutes just leaves...well, no crunch at all. I bring a pan of water to boil, add 4 to 6 ears of corn for 4 minutes (doesn't need to come back to boil...4 mins only). Put the ears in iced, cold water to cool, cut from cob and freeze in bags. Now that's summertime fresh tasting corn from the freezer.<\/p>","CommentId":13,"DateRated":"08\/10\/2014 15:59","GUID":"881425e0a5e141798f12fafbaa725073","MemberId":5747073,"Rating":1,"ScreenName":"Penny Lane3","SubmittedDate":"08\/10\/2014 15:59"},{"Comment":"
There is really no need for the added sugar, or the butter. Just blanch the corn while it is still on the cob, then cut kernels from cob. There's less splattering of the 'milk' this way than when corn is cut from cob uncooked. Then bag & freeze. Tastes like fresh corn when reheated. I've been doing it this way for many years.<\/p>","CommentId":14,"DateRated":"07\/07\/2014 14:08","GUID":"45215dbd56a34ed9b4c96165d6ba525c","MemberId":2747402,"Rating":1,"ScreenName":"Chooky","SubmittedDate":"07\/07\/2014 14:07"},{"Comment":"
This is by far the best corn you will ever taste! It is a little bit of summer that you can have anytime of the year. Just try it, you will not be disappointed.<\/p>","CommentId":15,"DateRated":"05\/30\/2014 17:03","GUID":"ff3269f75d6b4da88f0b18134e2fee73","MemberId":7827701,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Polishfoodie","SubmittedDate":"05\/30\/2014 17:02"},{"Comment":"

I had this recipe many years ago. I subcribed to Taste Recipes, well I have misplaced or had given this issue out and haven't been able to find it until now. This is the best frozen corn off the cob I have ever had. Many years ago when I made this my husband questioned why I was wasting so much time making freezer corn. At Thanksgiving he asked me where I got such great corn. He could have fallen off his chair when I told him it was the corn I froze.<\/p>","CommentId":19,"DateRated":"07\/12\/2010 16:15","GUID":"47c908c8016940e681ba0c4539e4792d","MemberId":5153049,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"use to own a restaurant","SubmittedDate":"07\/12\/2010 16:15"},{"Comment":"
