Cream Corn - Fried Corn - A Southern Cooking Tutorial

[@warmsteamingpile]

Lived in Georgia my whole life. So good to hear my people on KZbin. Love your channel.

[@kimhoneycutt6258]

Hello from Lexington, North Carolina! Momma called that milking the cob when she scraped it.🌽😊

[@luciabriseno9269]

I think cooking is an art. You can make it your Own. That’s the beauty in it

[@helenboula3538]

So true I'm originally from Rome Georgia so I'm right next door to call the valley my mother was raised in Cedartown yes you can make cooking your eye but in Georgia you do fried corn the way she does it and she's doing it right but I don't care everybody has their salad cooking I don't care how deep from the south as you come I've always told my children and my grandchildren you can make that recipe yours you can add whatever you want to but you can't take away but now bacon that is a Formula if you mess up a hair trash it's no good that cooking you make that your aunt that is your signature no one else's

[@helenboula3538]

My microphone is messing up on me just kind of read between the lines. Tammy she's a great cook bottom-line she truly is

[@kimhoneycutt6258]

You're here to tell us how YOU do things and I love watching you!👍❤😊 The tips you add, the variations are so informative! THANK YOU!!!

[@rebeccamccoy1763]

My mom made fried corn using frozen corn, milk, butter, salt and pepper. Boiled until almost dry. The milk and butter solids clung to the corn. It was always gone by meal end. Grew up on field corn. Mom would blanch and freeze on cobb.

[@rhena97]

That fried corn was good. Momma made it that way to.

[@alicewaters2268]

I usually put up 150 ears of white field corn, cream style every year. Love it.

[@mawmaw203]

It truly amazes me how so very much your family cooked just like mine. My mom did her corn just exactly like you did. Loved field corn and silver queen corn.

[@GAPeach58]

Silver queen is the best but hard to find unless from a roadside stand. Can't find it in grocery store in the city.

[@karenpino272]

Butter, salt, pepper. That's all my mother put in our vegetables for supper. And maybe a splash of milk. The simple things are best.♥

[@vickierickett4009]

I keep my cook book right at my side when you are cooking and add the notes when you say it is an add on to the book. Thank you so much for all your talents that you show in the videos. When you talk about your MOMMA it sounds like you are talking about my MOM. Thanks again Tammy

[@MsCNail-fe1sj]

Did you know a couple of wet paper towels will take the silk right off the corn? It works like a charm.

[@marylour253]

This brought back memories of standing in the kitchen as a teenager cut corn off the cob. Nothing better then cream corn. My Mom always seasoned the corn with bacon grease. She always froze the corn too. Great memories! Thanks for sharing.

[@bernadettemckinney7363]

Yesssss bacon grease😋

[@susanw3066]

I have learned so much from watching these videos.I have purchased the first cookbook,and really enjoying your wonderful recipes! Thank you so much,Tammy.💕💕

[@debraheard7564]

Yummy that’s the only way , I cut of 400 ears a year for my family. Then we’ll hep my mother do 200 ears the n my mother law 400 yrs. , and sister n law another 400 ears. A lot of work but well worth it to enjoy all yr. long.

[@jonihughey1352]

My arm got tired yesterday after 3 dozen. You must be the bionic woman. 😂👍

[@jaebeablessings1005]

I didn't think anybody else knew about fried corn. I love this dish. My Mom still makes it! 😁😆😊 Texas girl!

[@beverlybilbrey7815]

I grew up on field corn and really miss it. It made the best cream corn.

[@RandeT73]

I grew up on field corn, in IL. We'd go down the road to the farmer's field and pick it. He let a few families do it. I'd pick his wild berries too. Some of the families where my grand parents lived have probably been there 100 plus years. I went to my other great grandma's and I'd pick peaches, pecans, walnuts and apples out of her orchards.

[@YolandaisYolandaCooks]

My favorite summer treat is fried corn and fried green tomatoes 😋.

[@hearingeyes9129]

Field Corn is my favorite! It's really hard to acquire tho...it's been years since I've had any. It soo good!

[@charlawoodson7038]

I add milk and lots of butter to mine. Everyone loves it. Never any left no matter how much I make, add a little sugar. Cooked in cast iron skillet. Lots of black pepper.

[@GAPeach58]

Only in a cast iron skillet! 👍

[@kaitlynnbreemillie]

THE ONLY THING YOU NEED TO GO WITH THIS CORN IS A GOOD OLD HOMEMADE BISCUIT, I HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT NIGHT,LOVE YA

[@yvonnehouston4893]

And fresh fried okra and couple slices of homegrown tomatoes 😋

[@--Keiter]

@@yvonnehouston4893 OP

[@nancywright3327]

I grew up eating field corn..... sometimes we had it for breakfast with hot biscuits. Sometimes we would put it in the oven in the rack and roast it. It would be chewy and nutty. I was grown before we had sweet corn. I freeze quite a bit every year. I use microwave to freeze it and also to cook it. Never scorches like it does in pot.

[@livinglife8333]

I use my bundt pan to cut the corn off. Hand raised holder and the corn falls right in the pan.

[@sylvias5470]

This looks so good! My mom was from Columbia S.C and maw made this always with fat back, I might try making this in her memory, I'm a city girl from NJ but I love cooking

[@alandenniston8209]

Miss Tammy ~have you ever tried using a bundt cake pan to cut your corn off the cob. The center part of the bundt cake pan holds the corn cob steady and the pan catches the corn 🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽

[@helenboula3538]

I will surely try it because I do fried corn quite often we love ride, and I'm originally from Georgia and you can't get corned here in Texas like you can in Georgia a lot of times I'll have my sister to ship me some Korn believe it or not you cannot get any white corn in the state of Texas not at all you did is why Daniela from California Mexico but but you make it wrong I can remember I was raised on a hundred eighty Acres we all farm and if we got hungry Haley the Ada Bell Pepper corn off the stalk with raw green beans with tomatoes when we was out in that field we ate and we ate raw and we ate good and didn't even know it we just knew that we were sneaking food out of the garden we didn't dad tell the parents but you don't want the new but my gosh they were plenty it was Bountiful

[@helenboula3538]

I forgot to mention we had the strip sugar cane and pick cotton we was on a hundred eighty Acres no wonder we had so much energy because we ate out of the garden we shoot on the sugarcane and we still had all kind of energy yeah that's when your kid

[@patriotangel426]

I live in Central Illinois....let me tell ya....I live in the middle of corn fields, de-tasseled corn 🌽the old fashioned way as a kid in the summers, by hand and walking miles, ate field corn, had corn fights....corn corn corn, lol 😝

[@jonihughey1352]

Our corn is coming in. I’m cooking 10 ears tonight. Last night we had it boiled, so sweet. I couldn’t remember if my mom put a little flour & sugar, water or milk in hers. I miss her advice so much.

[@tammyfrazier8917]

I mix a can of whole corn and a can of cream corn together it’s pretty good like that

[@stacylgh]

I randomly came across this video while searching how to cook corn while sitting on my couch in Cedartown! I thought to myself "How many Collard Valleys can there be?" I just subscribed.

[@CollardValleyCooks]

Lol that is where I got this accent!

[@kimhoneycutt6258]

Thank you for putting revisions on your website. I actually print them and put them in the cookbooks. 👍😊

[@wandam.5586]

This brought back so many memories as a child watching mama and daddy in the kitchen cutting the corn off the cob to freeze. Mama would fry some corn for supper. We would have fried corn, gravy, homemade biscuits and sliced tomatoes. Yum! Yum! I grew up on field corn too.

[@ermagreen5008]

Ms Tammy the stalks are what the ears of corn come off of just thought you would like to know with much love.

[@joleigh9508]

Good use of corn. It's worth the process to cut it off the cobb when you eat it!! Yum, Yum!

[@jodydarby]

Growing up, we’d have maybe 2-all-day corn days at my grandparents’ house. All the aunts, uncles, and cousins were there to help from pulling it to freezing it and all steps in between. Great memories.

[@veronicamcminn7775]

Has anybody boiled potatoes in milk? My grandmother used to make “soupy potatoes” she called them with milk and butter. But i can’t remember if she boiled them first then moved them to milk or simmered in milk. But they it was fairly thick

[@tomrobards7753]

I think what you are talking about is thickened potatoes and all it is is corn starch thinking with butter my grandmother also made this with the small new potatoes that were fresh dug ,, grannies knew how to cook ,yum .

[@kayp.7757]

That's the way my Mother made stewed potatoes. Great with cornbread.

[@veronicamcminn7775]

Tom Robards thanks. I’ll give it a try

[@veronicamcminn7775]

Kay P. Lol yesssss always has it with cornbread.

[@rhena97]

Momma made these but no cornstarch. She let the water she cooked the potates in boil down at the end then add milk.

[@beckyhines3814]

Love fresh corn on the cob!

[@joyceroberts9506]

Just made fresh corn cut off the cob Sunday dinner. So sweet and delicious, not like that slop in can. Enjoyed video.

[@brendabrasher1971]

When I can't find fresh corn, I buy canned white shoepeg corn. I drain it, saute bacon, add corn, salt and pepper. Add butter, milk and cornstarch. Tastes like fresh.

[@patsyshirley5980]

I've found its so much easier to cut corn off the cob is to use a bundt cake pan put the small end in the hole and it goes in the pan and you don't get corn everywhere.

[@dcarmack1051]

Grew up on field corn loved it 😅

[@angelareinke9504]

Hey Miss Tammy I’ve never done that with corn, thanks for showing me how, love ya my friend!

[@lorettarogers8084]

I mix the frozen with my fresh corn to make more my kids love it

[@kayboniol127]

I just got some corn at Wally world yesterday and we are going to cook it today just like Mama did lol love ya

[@GAPeach58]

I agree with you about canned cream corn. I only use it for a corn casserole adding one can kernel corn. My mother made skillet fried corn from fresh corn with the bacon grease. I know people nowadays say that's probably bad for you but, that's the way her grandmother made it & it's not much bacon grease. After all, bacon makes everything better. 🥓

[@williecunnings3759]

Old fashioned field is best. I was also raised eating field corn. It is really hard to find. Sweet corn is good but not nearly as good as field corn. I'm glad to find someone else that knows about whit field corn. Thanks so much for this walk down memory lane.

[@lpbelleisle]

Oh my I can almost smell the goodness. I still prefer field corn to the other stuff they sell now (had to be Truckers Favorite white corn too). As a kid I thought the canned stuff was strictly for fish bait! Momma always did the cutting off part until she broke her shoulder, then it was passed to me. Never tried it with a serrated blade before, I just use a regular knife, my addition to the process was to use the back of the blade for scraping, it meant less knife sharpening. I will give my serrated knife a go next time. Thanks for the idea.

[@jeaniecorrado4671]

Can half-and-half or heavy cream be substituted for the milk if I wanted to make creamed corn?

[@CollardValleyCooks]

Yes it could

[@helenboula3538]

I just ordered a stainless steel corn shucker and milker should be in the mail today probably a lot of people don't know when you cut the corn off the cob they leave the milk on the cob and that is the best part of the Corn especially when you're doing fried corn you don't want to leave that milk behind but of course that applies to a country so they think you're crazy until they eat it then they have a different frame of mind LOL

[@bonniebrown6960]

That looks so good !! My family and I loves corn . Especially my son and my 7 yr old granddaughter . Miss Tammy , I remember one time my family and I went to my mama's for Christmas one year and my stepdad's mama had cooked some field corn . I walked in the house and I was thinking what's that smell ? Smelt like dirty feet . lol !! I fixed my plate and sat down at the table. I put a bite of that corn in my mouth and I looked up across the table at my brother in law and he just shook his head . I couldn't eat it . I had to spit it out . I didn't realize it was that corn . It had soured and she cooked it anyway. Oh my word .... I'll never forget that . I didn't want to say anything, bc I didn't want to hurt her feelings . I guess she couldn't smell it bless her heart . But we normally LOVE field corn !!! I just had to share that story with you . My husband and I get tickled every time we think about corn on the cob. lol !! Thank you Miss Tammy for sharing another wonderful video with us !!

[@denisenotdennis]

My favorite meal is.. fresh corn.. tomatoes and biscuits and salmon patties... If Granny made green bean...Bonus!!!..

[@Kathy_B_in_Tennessee]

I love fresh corn too. We had field corn and sweet corn and used both for eating! I remember the spiders too. And those saddleback caterpillars 🐛 they stung and it hurt.

[@claudegregory9133]

Yep.Salt Pepper and most importantly...Butter! Love u.

[@tammypayne272]

Tammy, I love watching you cook! You inspire me! I'm a Kentucky girl, and your recipes are like my mom's. Miss her cooking.

[@nylotisslaughter7385]

Thanks for sharing the video hun I loved it when you was cooking the corn

[@lucyba]

My grandparents used to buy the tube corn from Laura Lynn, and it was SO GOOD; tasted just like fresh. They stopped selling it and they switched to Birds Eye tubes, which was still good but not as good as Laura Lynn, oddly enough lol

[@concernedcitizen4031]

I need to watch to see if I do it wrong.

[@wandacheek9246]

I like to cook corn in a skillet, but instead of butter, I use fat back grease. Not very healthy but oh so delicious!!

[@lisavaden1118]

Pic-sweet has a bag of corn called shoe-peg white corn in the freezer section its pretty good fried this way

[@BobbiJo]

I grew up on a farm in southeast Georgia. I spent hours shucking corn and cutting it off the cob. Corn cooked this way is so delicious! Thanks for sharing. I need to send Steve to store to get some corn now. lol -Bobbi Jo's Mom

[@texasnana555]

When i was a kid we used to go to a "you-pick-it" farm & pick field corn. My mom would take it off the cob and freeze it in plastic bags in white freezer boxes. We would also eat it as corn on the cob. I love it.

[@helenboula3538]

About three nights ago I tried your recipe for Mexican cornbread and I live in Houston Texas and I have many many times cook many recipes for Mexican cornbread and I'm talking about from Hispanics it's not to say that they want good because they were good and some were better than the others that Tammy I must say yours is the best by of Everett 8's it was even better than mine and I have to say that honestly so you have sold your recipe and I will take credit for it LOL

[@CollardValleyCooks]

Wonderful to hear!

[@joygriffin8635]

Nothin better than creamed corn

[@kayp.7757]

Well, that's just like I do it. Like Mama cooked it.

[@adellis421]

I get it Tammie “Plain O” salt pepper n butter. Thats what my Mama and Grandmaw used to say..”plain ol”. And some “good garden corn” with supper. Yes ma’am them brown spiders. Thank y’all

[@pattydulaney8560]

I add the frozen whole kernel to the cubed frozen corn and it’s delicious!

[@susannaskye8419]

Corn in a tube ? 😲 Who knew?

[@vodnurse5702]

I love sweet corn....we have a mom n pop produce stand down the road from where I live. They have the BEST sweet corn. I go and get a couple ears every day or two, bc I like to cook it the day it’s picked. Nothing better!

[@evie1740]

I use to watch my moma and grandma take that corn off the cob with a knife I like the cream corn !! So good! Wheres the cornbread? Yum

[@kimhoneycutt6258]

My momma froze corn too! Thanks for the spider warning🕸🕷😀

[@ronnalscammahorn8002]

think ill keep using a Bunt Cake pan and a knife . prop the ear against the center hole and slice downward , the pan will catch the cut corn .

[@debragarrison7326]

I use to sell Cutco knives and Wearever cookwear. Those silver knives are made by Rada and u can still buy them. I still use my Cutco and Rada knives. Love them both. Thanks for your hard work.

[@donnastratton8397]

I got a dozen ears of corn yesterday to freeze. My mom made corn just like you do. I am wanting to freeze it because it's just the two of us. Do you need to blanch it after it's cut off before freezing? By the way, I bought a tube of that creamed corn on sale a few weeks ago, it was gross. Never again. I usually don't really eat canned corn, fresh is best! Glad you are feeling better Tammy!

[@CollardValleyCooks]

There are different opinions so I would just google it because I never freeze mine.

[@sharonmiller6298]

We always would find black widow spiders in our garden, especially in the tomatoes. Always wore gloves to the garden when picking garden vegetables.

[@suzanneleonard5485]

Hello from High Point! I make fried corn a lot, but I've never cut it like that. Thank you for a new way! Oh and canned cream corn is only good when making 3 meat Brunswick stew. Thickens it.

[@crhone5025]

Tammy, my mother use to cook bacon, than fried the corn in the grease. She would add salt, pepper, sugar, and butter. This is what she called fried corn. Is there different ways to cook it? All I know is it was delicious!! 🤎🤎🤎

[@bernadettemckinney7363]

That's the way I cook my corn also. To each his own🤗

[@GAPeach58]

That's exactly how my grandmother & mom made hers. In the bacon grease & butter, crumble the bacon on top when done. Yes, the best! 👍

[@NinaSimone24U]

YES...my Grandmother and my family cook it the same as your family..with some biscuits or flour bread and fried chicken. This is my favorite meal...#Tarheels 💎

[@willothewispl]

Yum, I can just taste it now. God Bless.

[@concernedcitizen4031]

When I do corn like that it gets everywhere. Guess my knives are too dull. I always heard boiling corn made it tough. I bring mine to a boil and turn it off. I dont use as much water. I do like white corn.

[@dreamarichards4972]

Yummy! That's all I put in my vegetables is butter, salt and a little pepper.

[@kellyreed8001]

Also silver queen corn is the best and yes I am from ga and always on my mind

[@leannaestrada3360]

had a fried bologna and onion sandwich for the first in my life today it was good thanks for the video corn looks good too

[@kellyreed8001]

Yes fat back or stricken u call it in the corn. With a buttered biscuits and raw honey or fig preserves and slices of tomatos. And a tall glass of sweet tea. For dessert Tammy's fried apple or peach pies. Let me dream of this meal tonight..

[@user-tw3kc5ou2h]

Excellent presentation. Southern style corn is delicious.

[@azdemgal]

Love me some fried corn, sliced tomatoes and corn bread or buttery biscuits. Grandma used to have to hide the fried corn from me as I would eat it all before supper time. Thanks so much Tammy. Love your channel. ♡♡

[@wandagoddard9118]

I love creamed corn mixed with fried potatoes, yummm

[@rhena97]

🖐🖐

[@deansurratt7404]

Tammy, do u ever cook corn cut off the cob, in the microwave ? If so, would u do a video on it so we can see what YOU do? I know it's a lot of pure common sense, but I'd just like to see how u do it!

[@nevagarren2624]

Nothing better than fried corn.

[@debbiedeal5937]

Tammy, that corn looks so good! I don't know that I could stand that long at the sink shucking it and silkin' it, but I sure do wish I had some of it!!! I think I'd add the milk and cornstarch b/c I just love that creamy, buttery taste and texture! Enjoy your delicious summer. (And put some sunscreen on that pretty fair skin!) I know being a red-head you are bound to burn easy.

[@kathymclain2632]

Just what I needed tonight, to watch Tammy cook!

[@richardyoung8973]

Never seen corn in a tube.

[@christineyarbrough2826]

Just discovered your channel and subscribed. My twin sister and I have been watching and we love your cooking. We're from the South and your food is how we eat. Just cooked your fried corn and green beans. Turned out great!!!! Delicious!!

[@CollardValleyCooks]

Thanks for subbing!

[@sandratauzin57]

Omg I love field corn but it’s so hard to find

[@ericsgranny8933]

Love your videos! Thanks for these wonderful recipes.

[@rhena97]

I got in trouble once as a kid. Got caught sneaking out. My punishment was shucking almost 2 trash bags of corn!! I will never forget that! ( i still love corn though). LOL

[@BrianCinBengals]

Has anyone tried frozen sweet corn pulsed in a food processor as a time saver?

[@helenboula3538]

I just ordered a stainless steel corn chopper and it melts the corn cob at the same time I got it in the mail yesterday so I will probably tried out next week and see how it turns out I'll let you know and I hope it works because with arthritis it can really help

[@michellealms3238]

Looks so delicious.

[@laureencortese8588]

Yummy for my tummy 😋❤️

[@dorenemears2146]

Do you have a recipe for hermit? Cppkies. My grandma used to make them

[@CollardValleyCooks]

I do not

[@Sandra-pm3it]

I love my disposal until I stop it up.😲

[@karengoins9434]

Makes me miss my mamas creamed corn it was so good

[@Lulu-bq9eu]

Awesome!
