Glancing across roadside fields in north Louisiana, you can see tassels on cornstalks waving, a signal that there will be abundance of corn ears accessible at local farmers markets and grocery stores. That's good news for the millions of Americans who will celebrate this Independence Day with fireworks and cookouts that take in grilled corn on the cob.
Sweet corn is a preferred vegetable. Whether you prefer to eat the kernels directly from the cob or scrape them off and make creamed corn like grandmothers, you will savor the flavor of fresh corn.
High-quality quality corn on the cob is tender and sweet. Kernels may be yellow, white or a mixture. When you buy fresh corn on the cob, look for this secret code of quality:
Kernels that are plump, but not too large, consistently spaced and cover the cob well.
