Can you freeze raw corn?

I don’t know if they’re still good after 6 weeks, but I do know that you can freeze raw corn, I do every year. I don’t know if they freeze well on the cob, I always cut the kernels off, then store them in containers in the freezer. Kinda like buying regular frozen corn, but better tasting.

I would think that if they were bad they’d have some sort of mold or something….?

I had it in the dark recesses of my brain that sweetcorn loses its sweetness quickly once picked, the sugar begins to turn to starch. So the sooner it is cooked the better. Just to be sure I had remembered things right, I looked it up on the Internet and the dark recesses of my brain were right

Well, I bought new today. What should I do with the other? I hate throwing food away.

Oh good. You link says it can be frozen @Adagio. Hi! Good to see you again!

Personally, I wouldn’t bother freezing corn that was six weeks old, I think that’s taking it too far. But I would feed them to chickens. Do you have poultry, chickens love corn on the cob.

No, I meant for the future if I run into a situation like this again.

No, I don’t have poultry. Maybe I’ll take it to the park and throw it in the woods.

This Recipe makes the most sense to me. It goes a step further than just wrapping and freezing cobs which just imagine the frozen cobs you can buy at the grocer that are the equivalent of teething mush off a cob.

Thanks @Cruiser.

@Dutchess_III For added flavor I would grill the cobs for 4 minutes to get the flavor infused and then carve the kernels off the cob…do the butter drill and freeze what little is left after you go full feed bag on your creation.

Last weekend we were camping in Oklahoma, and I was expecting my son and his fam for cooks out that night.
I had mixed onions and cheese in the hamburger for the patties.
I had rolled the corn in melted butter, then but them on a cradle of onions, threw a touch of salt on them and wrapped them up in foil.
I had all the corn cooked and ready to go, but not the burgers, when they cancelled because they didn’t get to their motel until a little late, and they have little kids.

Stuck the cooked corn back in the fridge, and the hamburger patties (in which I had mixed onions, cheese and smoke sauce) back in the freezer.

Got the corn out two nights later and threw them directly into the coals to heat them up. It was the best damn corn I ever ate! I wondered if it was because I’d cooked it, then let it set for two days before heating it up.
It was the same thing with the hamburgers when we ate them two days later. I guess the onions and smoke sauce worked it’s way all through the meat. SO good!

We’ll find out. They’re coming over on Saturday (tomorrow) and I cooked the corn last night and will heat it up when it’s time to eat. I also mixed my hamburger stuff up last night too.
