+FREEZING
Corn can also be stored in the freezer for a year. Before freezing it, it is necessary to blanch the corn cobs. To do this, peel the corn on the cob and remove the silks (beards). Cut it into pieces and put it in boiling water for 5 to 10 minutes. Drain and let cool before freezing. For cooking, let it thaw for 2 hours then boil it for 3 to 5 minutes.
+TIPS
Corn on the cob is at its peak during the months of July, August and September during the Quebec harvest.
Choose ears with rounded and smooth kernels. This shows that it has not started to dry out.
Sweet corn is also available canned or frozen.
