Growing up in the south, cream-style corn was always a family favorite. Especially taking fresh corn off the cob, shucking it together, and making a flavorful dish that is savory, yet sweet. Below is our family homemade recipe. I recommend using fresh corn if you can, but if not, frozen will work well too. Hope you enjoy!

    Yay! This is one of the things my mom used to make. She passed away last February and I really miss her home cooked meals. I am going to try your recipe. It would bring back so many memories of my childhood.
