Creamed Corn



Delicious--different than any other I have tasted--definitely not like the stuff from the can!
Chef Lacey Lee Berry
Full recipe                                       Half recipe
2 lbs. sweet corn (frozen is OK)
8 oz. milk
8 oz. heavy cream
2 Tbsp. granulated sugar
¼ tsp. black pepper
½ tsp. salt

2-3 Tbsp. melted butter
2 Tbsp. corn starch
1 lb. sweet corn (frozen is OK)
4 oz. milk
4 oz. heavy cream
1 Tbsp. granulated sugar
1/8 tsp. black pepper
¼  tsp. salt

1 ½  Tbsp. melted butter
1 Tbsp. corn starch
Pinch of cayenne pepper (just a pinch—it will not be as good if you skip it)

Mix corn, milk, heavy cream, sugar, pepper & salt together in heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring often.  Bring to boil.  Cook 7-10 minutes.  Reduce heat.

Melt butter, add corn starch & stir well to create a smooth “slurry”.  Add slurry to corn mixture, stir well.  Bring back to boil.  Cook 3-5 minutes.  Add pinch of cayenne pepper, stir well.  Serve.


In the video, Chef Lacey shows Texas Beef Brisket, rolls, cole slaw & creamed corn—the creamed corn starts at about the 16 minute mark.
