Delicious Parmesan Cream Corn

Yield: 8 servings
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 5 cups frozen or fresh white or yellow corn kernels
  • 1 cup cream
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions 

  • In a medium saucepan, combine the corn, cream, salt, sugar, pepper and butter.
  • Heat over medium heat, stirring often, until the butter is melted.
  • In a separate bowl or liquid measuring cup, whisk together the milk and flour until smooth (can also blend to avoid any lumps).
  • Add the milk mixture to the corn, stirring quickly, and cook over medium heat until the creamed corn is thick and bubbly.
  • Remove from the heat and add the Parmesan cheese. Stir until melted. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
  • Serve. The creamed corn will thicken as it cools. It can be kept warm on low in a slow cooker (or in the oven at 200 degrees) for up to an hour before serving.

Notes

Corn: I usually use Costco's frozen white sweet corn for this but I think several varieties would fare well.
Cream: I also use heavy cream, since it's what I have on hand, but I think light cream and even half-and-half might make a great substitution if you want to experiment.
