"Then plough deep while sluggards sleep, and you shall have corn to sell and to keep." -Benjamin Franklin, Genius
I will tell you straight up that I love creamed corn, and most recipes are really high in fat, salt, or both. It depends on whether you buy frozen or canned or make you own, but ‘most all of them are just over the top nutritionally.
This recipe gives you so much of what I love in creamed corn: fresh corn flavor, sweetness, and best of all, creaminess. Serve this with any comfort food you choose: Oven Fried Chicken, Pulled Chicken Barbecue Sandwiches or Oven Fried Fish.
