Ingredients
- 3 cups fresh corn kernels (about 6 ears of corn)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Begin by shucking the ears of corn and cutting the kernels off the cob to measure about 3 cups. Set them aside.
Step 2
In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat until foamy.
Step 3
Add the corn kernels to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until they soften and become slightly golden.
Step 4
Sprinkle the flour over the corn and stir to coat evenly. Cook for 1 minute to eliminate the raw flour taste.
Step 5
Gradually pour in the heavy cream and whole milk, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
Step 6
Add the granulated sugar, salt, and black pepper. Continue to cook for another 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens and the corn is tender.
Step 7
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Remove the skillet from heat.
Step 8
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color, if desired, and serve warm.
