  • Corn Heidi Leblanc, Family and Consumer Sciences Agent Charlotte Brennand, Food Safety/Preservation Specialist
    Reviewed March 2010 Corn Heidi LeBlanc, Family and Consumer Sciences Agent Charlotte Brennand, Food Safety/Preservation Specialist Did you know? ● Corn is not only a favorite vegetable, but it is also the source of corn starch, cornmeal, corn oil, corn syrup, bourbon, and laundry starch. ● To partake of corn at its very best flavor, take it directly from the plant to the pot of boiling water on the stove. Without proper storage, corn’s natural sugars start to diminish quickly, resulting in a loss of sweetness within a couple of days. Yield: There are several things that affect corn’s yields: moisture, size, and variety. One bushel of unhusked corn weighs approximately 35 pounds and contains about 5 dozen ears. When canning, a bushel yields 6-11 quarts, or 12-20 pints. One dozen ears yield two to four 12-ounce packages of frozen corn. SELECTING FRESH CORN Look for fresh husks with good green husk color, silk ends that are free from decay or worm injury and stem ends that are not too discolored or dried. Select ears that are well covered with plump, not too mature kernels. Avoid ears with undeveloped kernels, ears with very large kernels and dark yellow kernels because they can be tough and not very sweet. It is important to pick corn and process it within 2-3 hours. The sugar in corn is quickly lost, so for optimum quality process as soon after picking as possible. If not able to process immediately, store corn in the refrigerator. FREEZING CORN Corn keeps well frozen.
