Now that we have this HUGE freezer to fill I can take advantage of some of the great deals I've found lately! Our local grocery store had corn on 5/$1 and I had bought a few ears for dinner and discovered it was a great batch!
A few days later I went back, filled my shopping cart (aka Buggy) and asked the cashier not to judge me by the amount of corn I was purchasing. Once home I shucked all the ears on the back deck, broke them in half, boiled for 7 minutes, cooled in an ice bath for 8 (and by ice bath I mean I use the frozen water bottles and packages of hot dogs in place of ice because we didn't have any), let drain on a towel for a for minutes and bagged & labeled.
I am so excited to be eating fresh (well fresh frozen) corn in the winter months!
