How to freeze corn for the winter in grains - step by step cooking
For freezing, choose young corn, as it is also called - milk corn. The grains should be light yellow or milky, and most importantly, soft. If you take ripe corn, then nothing will save it from hardness. So, we take the heads of cabbage, peel them and cut off the grains with a sharp knife.
Fill the corn with hot water and put it on fire. Cook it after boiling for 4 minutes.
We drain the water, immediately fill the grains with ice water and add ice. Blanching is necessary in order to soften the corn and remove microorganisms from the surface of the kernels.
We put the cooled corn on a sieve and let the water drain out.
We lay out the grains in one layer on a tray or board and send them to the freezer for 5-6 hours.
We transfer completely frozen grains to a bag or container.
Frozen corn can be used in salads, stews, or added to rice and other cereals. You do not need to defrost it beforehand.
