Freeze Dried Corn on the Cob -- IOWA SWEET CORN YEAR ROUND!

Why would I want to waste my time on freeze dried corn? I live in Iowa, arguably the corn capital of the US. Every July and August there are 100's of vendors with the juiciest, tastiest varieties of Iowa sweetcorn known to man. One problem....it doesn't have a very long shelf life and it's only available to buy for about a month every year. UNTIL NOW! I am freeze drying 100 ears of Iowa Sweetcorn that will last for 20+ years. Now I can enjoy my sweetcorn even after the snow flies! I also had the idea of rehydrating this with a butter/ water combo and a little salt and pepper. THIS WAS LIFE CHANGING for me. Try some for yourself, freeze dried corn is awesome! It brings out the natural sugars in the corn and if you snack on it in the freeze dried state, it's just as tasty.

The freeze Dried Corn Worked amazing! Make sure you grab some precut parchment paper and a food funnel at www.freezedryingsupplies.com

[@alliegoblue]

Not true. Blanching cobs takes more time in order to address the enzymes in the cob itself.

[@cobysmith3179]

Stick the top of the corn cob in an angel food cake pan center hole and it holds the corn as you cut off the kernels and catches it all in the cake pan for way less mess! This is a tip my dad taught me. He was a farmer in South Dakota.

[@flossiesmommydoggo77]

Science nerd, here. Instead of sealing in the nutrients, blanching kills off any microorganisms that may contaminate the fruit & veggies, & more importantly, it deactivates enzymes that would cause this food to go to mush. This deactivation can also sometimes lead to a (different) change in texture. To counteract this issue, if you add calcium chloride - pickling lime - to the blanching water, it keeps the tissues firm (forms insoluble complexes of calcium pectate, to be exact…🧪). Blanching also removes intercellular gasses, altering the wavelengths of reflected light. This is what brightens the color of some veggies. In addition, due to its very short contact-time with heat, blanching & then moving the food quickly into a very cold water bath helps to preserve more of the nutrients for either freezing or freeze-drying. The relatively long time plus the high heat during canning is what causes so much destruction of many nutrients.

[@oshkoshunleashed209]

How much would you add per quart of blanching water?

[@flossiesmommydoggo77]

@@oshkoshunleashed209 a 1% solution is what is suggested, which would be 10 grams per liter of water. That’s about 1/3 ounce by weight in 1.05 quarts of water. (Liters & grams, if you hv a way to measure, is more specific.)

[@mbowman4436]

I was watching this to see you freeze dry this on the cob! Could that be done? Then you could have corn on the cob in the winter!

[@cindykq8086]

Dude, you are KILLING me. Ok, not killing but serious wounding. I had to go keto because my high candy intake was literally killing my liver. So, keto = almost no carbs. No corn. A tragedy for someone whose favorite childhood memory is picking corn, taking it home, and my mom immediately cooking it as she fried the fish my dad and grandpa caught that day. Good times!

Great video. Looking forward to next summer and fresh corn to do this! Quick tip: The easiest way to remove the silk is to blanch the corn in the husk. Then the husk and silks come off really easy!

[@cherylfisher5516]

I make a Mexican Street corn recipe using corn cut off the cob instead of still on the cob. I use sour cream, a little Greek yogurt instead of the mayo, and about half a cup of queso fresca cheese, chopped roasted red peppers, chopped onion, and spices. Yummy snack.

[@annwithaplan9766]

I've read 2-3 min, 5-6 min, 10 min, depending on the thickness of the cob. The thicker/bigger the cob, the longer the blanch time.

[@kellyr3599]

I like to microwave 5 ears in the husk for 8 minutes. The silk then comes off real easy. I then cut it off the cobb and it's ready to eat. or freeze dry. Love the videos!

[@live.life.simple.]

Great tip!

[@cindykq8086]

So much easier in the "monkeywave" but I'm still going the husk-and-blanch route because microwaves destroy nutrients. Some things are worth spending time on.

[@aprilthomas8]

We do something very similar to this. Cut it off the cob after shucking, put about 5 cups in the microwave for about 5 minutes then freeze. However, this year I'll be doing this and then freeze drying it instead on a few bags chest to try it out!

I come from a large family of ten, so we cooked a lot of corn. In the summer, we bought dozens of ears of corn from a couple of local corn growers. We liked the bread and butter variety. It had large kernels and was sweet. I remember as a kiddo sitting outside helping my mom shuck about 2½ dozen ears of corn for a meal. We used a dry washcloth to rub off the corn hair, which was quick and easy.

A friend down the road, John Harold, is the inventor of the patented "Olathe Sweet Corn," which is the main variety sold by Kroger. John's Tuxedo Corn Co. will ship about 750,000 cases this year, 85% of which will be sold to Kroger. Every year, we are awash in sweet corn, and to date have been stripping the kernels and blanching them before freezing in vacuum bags processed in our wonderful Vacuseal chamber vacuum machine. The thawed kernels are OK, but usually a little watery. We use a bundt cake pan to hold the ears vertical and catch the stripped kernels. We will definitely freeze-dry most of the ears we'll get from this year's harvest, I think they might come out better with a shorter blanch time, and think we'll try blanch a batch of kernels for 2-3 minutes before firing up the HarvestRight! Here's a newspaper article on the Olathe Corn Festival, featuring John Harold and his corn! www.evernote.com/l/ABSFN0plenZHlJ7UXgF0teR5oOkNyDKuFlM

@@carolclarkson4859 I ordered it directly through the @Retired at 40- Live.Life.Simple. Affiliate link. I’m sure it’s human error as these machines aren’t a ‘set it and forget it’ type appliance. I’m working on another batch right now and if that doesn’t work out, I’ll call and ask for help. I will say the chickens have loved all the fruit fails, they’ve been eating very well this past week😂
