Ingredients
Scale
- 4 ears corn, shucked, silks removed
- 3 tablespoons salted butter
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons granulated sugar (or to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt or to taste
- 1/4 cup whole milk, or more as needed
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the corn: Cut the kernels from the cob, then use the back of a spoon or knife to scrape out any remaining corn and creamy liquid. You should have about 3 cups of corn.
Pulse about 3/4 cup of the corn kernels in a food processor and then add them back to the bowl. I use a bullet blender. - Make the roux: Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. When the butter is sizzling, add the flour and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the cream and stir until smooth.
- Finish the dish: Add the corn, sugar, salt, and the milk. Stirring, frequently, cook for about 6 minutes or until the mixture is thickened. If too thick, add a little more milk or cream.
