Advice
When making creamed corn, it is important to use fresh ingredients. Use fresh, in-season ears of corn, butter, and cream. Start by cutting the kernels off the cob and then sauté them in butter for about 5 minutes. Once the onions and garlic are added, you can add the cream and seasonings. Once everything is mixed together, simmer the creamed corn for about 10 minutes and then serve. Adding a bit of sugar can also help to balance out the flavors. Lastly, if you want a thicker consistency, try adding a bit of flour or cornstarch to the mix before simmering.
