Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 garlic cloves pressed
  • 2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup

    whole milk 


  • 5 cups frozen sweet corn
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
  • 1/2 tsp salt or to taste
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • chopped parsley for garnish optional

Instructions

  • Bring a large pan over medium-high heat. Add in the butter and pressed garlic. Stir for about 20 seconds until the garlic becomes fragrant.
  • Stir in the flour and mix for about 1 minute to cook out the raw flour taste.
  • Now pour in the heavy cream and milk and bring it to a simmer.
    Steps to make Creamed Corn: saute garlic in butter, then add flour and milk and cream.
  • Then add in the frozen corn. Continue stirring until the corn is fully heated through.
  • Once the corn is fully cooked through, add in the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and enjoy!
    Steps to make Creamed Corn: add frozen corn, then add salt, pepper, and Parmesan cheese.

Notes

  • Use frozen corn- While you can use other corn, the frozen corn will hold its shape better than fresh or canned.
  • Use milk- By using milk and cream instead of just heavy cream, you avoid the creamed corn getting too thick.
  • Cook the flour- Raw flour has a flavor that you want to cook out before adding the milk and cream. Stir and saute it for a minute.
