Step 1

Remove the husks from the corn. Inspect the cobs and pull off any remaining silks. Use a knife to cut off any bruised or shriveled areas.

Step 2

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Drop the prepared corn cobs into the water and cook until bright yellow, about 3 to 4 minutes.

Step 3

Use tongs to remove promptly and transfer to a large bowl filled with ice water. Let them cool for about 4 minutes. Drain and pat dry.

Step 4

Slice the kernels off the cobs, using a serrated knife for best results. Consider slicing the corn in a bowl to prevent the kernels from going all over the place.

Step 5

Transfer the blanched kernels to a freezer bag. Seal tightly and remove as much air as possible.

Step 6

Label and store in the freezer. Use within 8 to 12 months. Add directly from frozen to hot dishes. Thaw before using in salsas or salads.

Step 7

After removing the husks, simply slice the kernels off the cob.

Step 8

Transfer to bags. Seal tightly and remove as much air as possible.

Step 9

Label and store in the freezer. Use within 3 to 6 months. Add directly from frozen to hot dishes.

Step 10

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Drop the prepared corn cobs into the water and cook 7 minutes for small ears, 9 minutes for medium ears, and 11 minutes for large ears.

Step 11

Use tongs to remove promptly and transfer to a large bowl filled with ice water. Let them cool for about 5 minutes. Drain and pat dry.

Step 12

Transfer to a freezer bag. Seal tightly and remove as much air as possible.

Step 13

Label and store in the freezer. Use within 8 to 12 months. Cook from frozen in boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes.

Step 14

After removing the husks, transfer to a freezer bag. Seal tightly and remove as much air as possible.

Step 15

Label and store in the freezer. Use within 3 to 6 months. Cook from frozen in boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes.

Step 16

Do not remove the husks. Wrap each ear tightly in a couple layers of plastic wrap.

Step 17

Transfer to a freezer bag. Seal tightly and remove as much air as possible.

Step 18

Let thaw before cooking, either in the fridge overnight or in a bowl of cool water on the counter (keep in plastic wrap/bag while thawing).

Step 19

Remove husks once thawed and cook as desired, such as in boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes.
