Creamed Corn? Are You Serious?

[Doosh]

Hey, was in my cupboard and found a can with half a label and it says CREAMED CORN. I can't remember ever buying this and can't see the ingrdients. What exactly is creamed corn and do you do with it? Sounds like a pukefest just waiting to happen or could be the best thing since sliced bread though I'm a bit apprehensive to open it.

Any ideas?

extract from last year will surely be stronger this year? I buy satans sh.it and devils blood from http://chillipepperpete.com/ good stuff. Bit late for today, but the chilli chocolate is great.

My sister gave me some hot chilli popcorn last year. Find that and it will make someone cry!

This is a well known product in the USA and among people elsewhere in the world - some members of my family miss it. It was previously more widely available in the UK but it is quite a while since I saw it on sale. It is basically normal sweet corn which has been cooked longer than the simple kernel variety, it tastes pretty much identical although the creamed version has a stronger corn flavour. It can be eaten straight from the tin or warmed up or else added to dishes, but it should not be boiled/cooked further. There are lots of things I would describe as revolting, creamed corn is not on the list.

Oddly, I've been looking for creamed sweetcorn to go into smoked haddock chowder.

It's a treat here in the U.S. and can be bought in grocery stores. It's simply canned corn that's been partially pureed to release some of the starch and sugars in the corn kernels. In the commercial versions (Del Monte, etc.) there's no milk or cream added. In homemade version sometimes a little actual cream and a sprinkle of sugar are added, but not much.

Feed it to your friends as a prank when they are on that centrifuge in a submarine wearing those blazers and handlebar moustaches
