The Best Creamed Corn


Source: All Recipes

We celebrated Thanksgiving the Saturday after with J's family at his mom's house. His brother's wife made the best creamed corn which prompted me to find this recipe on - where else - All Recipes. This is not exactly her recipe but very very close. I can't wait to make this on Christmas. Very very good.

2 (20 ounce) packages frozen corn kernels, thawed
1 cup whipping cream *she used half and half*
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon monosodium glutamate (MSG, or Accent flavor enhancer) *she used season salt*
2 tablespoons sugar
white or cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons flour *she used Bisquick*
2 tablespoons butter, melted

Place corn kernels, whipping cream, milk, salt, flavor enhancer, sugar, and white or cayenne pepper in a large stockpot. Bring to a slow, low boil beginning on medium heat, stirring frequently. Simmer for 5 minutes on low heat.
Melt butter in the microwave, or in a small saucepan on low heat. Whisk in flour until smooth. Stir into the corn until well blended. Enjoy!
