How to Make Best Creamed Corn

  1. In a large saucepan, combine 2 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels, 1 cup milk, 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup butter, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  2. Stir until well combined.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
  4. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently, for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  5. In a separate small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) cold unsalted margarine and 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour until smooth and no lumps remain. This creates a roux.
  6. Gradually whisk the margarine-flour mixture into the simmering corn, stirring continuously to prevent lumps.
  7. Continue to cook and stir constantly for another 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
  8. Season with freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  9. Serve warm and enjoy!
