Well I'm sitting quietly in my office minding my own business. A friend of ours comes in and asks if I want some fresh picked corn. I wind up, through no fault of my own, with 1/2 a box!! I didn't want to, but he told me he just takes the corn and chucks it into the freezer (straight from the box!) then straight from the freezer to the microwave for 7 to 10 mins an ear.
We've of course been on a corn binge this week, cooking it in the microwave -- husk, silk and all for about 7 mins an ear. OMG! It is the cornyest tasting corn I've ever eaten. We thought maybe because the first time was the same day the corn was picked, but not 4 days later it was just as good. Now I'm curious about the frozen stuff - and hoping he comes by with another 1/2 a box!!!!! Has anyone tried freezing corn like this????
Last night we mixed parm., aleppo pepper flakes, S & P into butter and smeared the corn with it. It was so good, I may just grab some for breakfast!

You only live once . . . but if you do it right once should be enough!
