Creamed Corn

We went to Las Vegas last year and had a corn dish like this and it was fabulous. When we came home I immediately worked on making a version of it. I have come pretty close and it is great to use the fresh corn we have available now. I have also used frozen corn and it works out really well. I prefer to use a white corn but any good corn will work.

Sauteed Creamed Corn

• 4 c whole kernel corn
• 3 Tbs butter
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• salt to taste
• 1/2 c half and half or cream

In a large skillet melt the butter and saute the corn until hot through and starting to get tender. Season with the salt and pepper. Pour in the cream and let it simmer until the cream has reduced and just coats the corn.

It is really a simple dish and so easy to make but it tastes so savory and is not your gooey creamed corn you may have had before.
