British Sweetcorn Cobs (Organic)

Storage Tips:

• Refrigeration: Keep fresh sweetcorn cobs in the refrigerator to preserve their sweetness and texture. Leave the husks intact to maintain their moisture. Place them in the vegetable crisper drawer, away from fruits like apples and bananas, as they can hasten ripening.
• Freezing: If you have more sweetcorn cobs than you can consume, freezing is an excellent way to store them for later use. First, blanch the cobs in boiling water for 3-5 minutes, then plunge them into ice water to stop the cooking process. Pat them dry and place them in airtight freezer bags. Frozen sweetcorn cobs can last for up to 6 months.

How to Eat/Cook:

• Boiling: Boiling is a classic and straightforward method to cook sweetcorn cobs. Remove the husks and silk, and bring a pot of water to a boil. Drop the cobs into the boiling water and cook for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender and fully cooked. Serve the sweetcorn cobs with butter, salt, and pepper, or add them to salads and soups for added sweetness and crunch.
• Grilling: For a smoky and charred flavor, grill sweetcorn cobs on the barbecue. Peel back the husks, remove the silk, and brush the cobs with butter or olive oil. Grill them over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until the kernels are slightly charred and tender. Serve with your favorite seasonings or spices for a delicious and enticing side dish at your next barbecue.
• Microwave: keeping the corn in its husk, microwave for 2 minutes per cob. Add an extra 30 secs on if still a little crunchy. Chop the tops and bottoms off, and the leaves will fall straight off after. Be careful - it'll be hot!
