Equipment
- Large Pot
- Immersion Blender or Regular Blender
Ingredients
- 1 small Onion diced
- 3 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Flour
- 5 cups Frozen Corn
- 2 teaspoons Sugar
- 3/4 cup Heavy Cream
- 3/4 cup Milk
- 1/8 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon Nutmeg
Instructions
- Sauté the onions. In a large pot or Dutch oven melt the butter over medium heat and add the onion. Saute the onion until translucent, about 3 to 5 minutes.
- Mix in the flour. Add the flour and toss to mix, cooking for 1 minute, using a wooden spoon to scrape any browned bits off the bottom.
- Add the corn. Place the corn in the pot and cook for 1 additional minute, until just heated.
- Simmer. Blend in the sugar, cream, and milk, and allow it to cook for approximately 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the cayenne pepper and nutmeg.
- Blend. Spoon out 1 1/2 cups of corn using a slotted spoon and set it aside. Use a blender to mix the remaining ingredients, leaving some corn chunks. Return the reserved corn to the pot and season with salt and pepper as needed.
Notes
Storage Instructions: Store creamed corn in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Avoid freezing, as the dairy in creamed corn can separate and result in an undesirable texture when thawed.
