Shucking Corn Ahead of Time

kitchencuddle.com

The ideal way to consume corn is to eat it the day you buy it, but you can shuck corn ahead of time and refrigerate or freeze it.

If you can't use the corn within a day, refrigerate it with the husks on to slow down the conversion of sugar to starch and keep the corn fresh for longer.

To retain the flavors of corn, buy it unpeeled and store it whole.

Store un-shucked corn on the counter for a day since the husk will protect the kernels from drying.

To prevent moisture loss, wrap the corn in an airtight bag or store it in an airtight box with the internal layers of the husk intact.

For longer storage, shuck and freeze the corn, blanch and freeze it, or freeze the cut corn kernels.
