Quick Answers
We were very disappointed in the sweet corn we froze last summer. It didn't taste nearly as sweet as the corn we ate fresh.
The sugar in sweet corn begins to convert to starch
immediately after picking. Look for newly developed
varieties that minimize this problem. Eat, freeze or can
sweet corn as soon as possible after picking. It's a
good idea to have your blanching water heating up while
you're picking sweet corn to be frozen.
