Ways to Eat/Cook Sweet Corn
Boiled, barbecued, roasted and even raw.
Selecting the Best
Quality sweet corn has large full formed ears and
the kernels are nice and even. The silky fiber should be fresh and the kernels
should be nice and shiny. Avoid corn that has burned and shriveled husk. Avoid
corn where there is no juice in the kernels and that lack good color. The
kernels should squirt a slightly clouded juice when poked.
Availability
Sweet Corn is available from California,
Washington, Florida and Texas. Sweet Corn is available year-round. California
sweet corn season is from Mid-May until October.
