Homemade Creamed Corn
From Brian & Brandy
20 oz. frozen corn thawed
1 cup heavy cream
1 tsp salt
2 TBLS sugar
1/4 tsp pepper
2 TBLS butter
1/2 cup milk
2 TBLS flour
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
Heat first 6 ingredients together in a large pot.
In a separate small bowl, wisk the 1/2 cup milk and 2 TBLS of flour (this is what will help thicken the cream).
Stir into corn mixture and cook over medium heat (Stir often so the cream doesn't burn) until mixture is thickened and corn is cooked through.
If you don't cook it until it's thickened, it will be runny.
Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 cup parmesan cheese.
Enjoy!
This is amazingly delicious! Just make sure to get your cream nice and thick before you put it in a slow cooker to stay warm if you are taking it to a party. Can easily be doubled or tripled for a crowd.
Pressure cooker version: put first 6 ingredients into pot. Cook on low pressure for 10 minutes. Natural release for 10 minutes then quick release. Dissolve 1 Tbls cornstarch in 1/4 cup milk. Add to corn mixture. Sauté until mixture becomes thick and creamy. Stir in Parmesan cheese.
