Corn Vol 2.

Well, Wednesday night brought the final stages of the corn saga. That evening I spent another 5.5 hours cutting all of the corn off the cob, creaming the cobs (scraping the cobs with a knife to pull out all the juices), blanching the corn, putting the corn in the newly washed containers, waiting on it to cool and then putting it all in the freezer.

For those of you that don't understand blanching corn. In small batches you bring some corn and water to a boil and then cut the heat off. It's a very long, slow, and tedious process.

When all the corn was finished I ended up with 13 quarts and 10 pints of yummy home grown corn!
