Are you looking for an easy, tasty summertime side to serve up with all your favorite 4th of July dishes? This delicious, made from scratch, creamed corn is the perfect side! When corn is at its summertime peak of sweetness, use fresh corn to make this dish. But you can just as easily use a bag of frozen corn and get a great tasting side that takes just minutes to prepare. That means more time spent with your family and friends enjoying the holiday instead of slaving over a hot stove.
How To Make Creamed Corn:
Melt butter in a pan over medium heat.
Add flour and whisk together. Cook to remove the raw flour taste, about 2 minutes, whisking constantly until all lumps are gone.
Add heavy cream, sugar, and salt and pepper.
Stir together until heated through and you have a nice thick sauce that looks like the picture below.
Stir in corn and milk. Cook until mixture thickens and everything is heated through.
Remove from heat and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Oh my goodness, this side is absolutely delicious! Ditch the metallic tasting canned stuff and make your own from scratch in just a few short minutes. Use fresh summer corn that you cut off the cob when it’s in season, or keep it super simple and use a bag of frozen corn instead. Both fresh or frozen produce outstanding results. No weird chemical additives or unpronounceable preservatives, just wholesome sweet goodness you can feel good about serving your family. This easy to make side will be making an appearance at the table all summer long at my house. It’s DELICIOUS!
Serve this easy to make side with an Oven Roasted Tri-Tip. This cooking method is one of the easiest ways to cook up a roast beef. It produces a perfectly cooked tender, juicy, and flavorful roast with only 5 minutes of hands on time.
