Early  summer we begin to looking  forward to  eating corn on the cob.  When available at the Farmer’s Market, we made sure we had plenty of fresh corn, green beans and tomatoes.  For a change of taste, I made Fried Corn with Peppers.  It was delicious, the corn was filled out with  milk in the kernels.

It takes 3 large ears of corn to yield 2 cups.  This is also the same amount of Savory Baked Corn and also the quantity for creamed corn. Fresh corn is much tastier when you cut off the kernels of corn and scrape the ear to press out the milky liquid.  When making the Fried Corn, the corn was cut off and scraped before frying.
