Old Fashioned Creamed Corn Recipe
Ingredients:
- 8 ears corn, husked
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup cold water
- 2 tablespoons bacon grease
- 2-3 tablespoons butter
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, cut the tip off the corn cob. Cut the kernels from the cob with a small paring knife.
- Using the back of the blade, scrape against the cob to press out the milky liquid.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, salt, and pepper.
- Combine the sugar mixture with the corn.
- Add the heavy cream and water to the bowl and mix everything together.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the bacon grease.
- Add the corn mixture to the skillet and turn the heat down to medium-low.
- Stirring occasionally, cook until the corn becomes creamy, about 30 minutes.
- Add the butter right before serving.
