Creamless Cream Corn Recipes

Steps:

• With a device called the Lee's Corn Cutter, remove the guard, place each ear of corn horizontally over a bowl and scrape the kernels. Set aside.
• Place the oil or melt the butter in a small sauté pan and sweat the jalapeño, onion and bell pepper. Add the corn and its milk. When about half the milk has boiled away, add the cilantro, salt and pepper and set aside until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Shuck half the corn and remove the kernels from the husks. Place the corn in a blender and discard the cobs and husks. Purée the corn with 1/3 cup water. Press the purée through a fine sieve and reserve.
• Shuck the remaining corn, cut the kernels from the cobs, and reserve. Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large, high-sided skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, salt, and pepper and cook until the onion begins to soften, about 10 minutes. Add the reserved corn, salt, and 1/2 cup of water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the corn is almost tender, about 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, transfer the strained corn purée into a double boiler set over barely simmering water. Cook gently, stirring frequently, until the liquid thickens to the consistency of heavy cream, about 3 minutes. Season the purée with salt and pepper. Remove the corn and onion mixture from the heat and stir in the corn cream. Add the tarragon and adjust the seasoning if necessary with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Add peas, asparagus, potatoes, tomatoes, and lobster chunks to "Creamless" creamed corn. Simmer gently. Garnish with chopped chives.
• Grate 5 ears of corn into a bowl. Press the grated corn through a fine sieve reserving the "milk" and discarding the grated corn and the cobs. Cut the kernels from the remaining ears of corn. Combine the cut corn, water, and salt and pepper in a medium pan. Cover the pan and steam, stirring once or twice, until the corn is tender, about 5 minutes. Set the corn aside. Stirring constantly, bring the corn "milk" to a simmer over medium saucepan. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook, continuing to stir, until the "milk" thickens, about 3 minutes. Add the cooked corn, salt and pepper and cook until the corn is heated through. Serve warm.

Steps:

• In a skillet over medium heat, combine the corn, cream, salt, sugar, pepper and butter. Whisk together the milk and flour, and stir into the corn mixture. Cook stirring over medium heat until the mixture is thickened, and corn is cooked through. Remove from heat, and stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Purée 3 cups corn kernels with 2 cups water until smooth. Strain mixture through sieve. Discard solids.
• Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat, add leeks and salt, and sauté 1 minute. Add remaining 5 cups corn, and sauté 2 minutes more.
• Add corn purée to corn-leek mixture, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer 15 minutes, stirring often. Mixture should be thick and creamy. Remove from heat, and stir in dill. Season with salt and pepper, if desired.

Steps:

• Grate the corn on the large holes of a box grater placed over a wide bowl. If you wrap plastic wrap around the 3 other sides of the grater, the splashes will go into the bowl.
• Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, and add shallots if using. Cook, stirring, until shallot is tender and fragrant, about 2 minutes, and add the corn and salt to taste. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring often, until the mixture is sweet and creamy. Taste and adjust salt. Stir in the remaining tablespoon of butter and remove from the heat. Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion and 1 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Add flour, cayenne, and turmeric; cook 1 minute more. Add corn kernels and milk, broth, and 2 cups water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until corn is tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool slightly. Transfer mixture to a blender, working in batches if necessary, and purée until very smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. (Strain through a fine-mesh sieve, if desired, for the silkiest texture.) Refrigerate until cold, at least 4 hours or, in an airtight container, up to 3 days. Season with salt; serve.

Steps:

• Cook corn according to package directions; I use the microwave.
• Melt butter in saucepan, stir in flour and blend well.
• Add milk, about 1/2 cup at a time, and blend with whisk.
• Cook over medium heat until thickened.
• Stir in sugar, salt and pepper.
• Add cooked, drained corn.
• Hint: sometimes I use part milk, part cream.
