Tips on buying
good quality
corn on the cob
When you go to buy corn
on the cob, what do you look
for? Food specialists at the
Ontario Food Council, Ministry
of Agriculture and Food, say
that you should check the husk,
the silk and the kernels. The
husks should be bright green
and snug; the silks dark brown
at the top of the ear, and the
kernels plump and in even rows.
The number of rows on a cob,
or the depth of yellow, have
little to do with freshness --this
is largely determined by var-
iety.
To retain its sweetness, corn
must be kept cool. Within a sho
short time of picking, the sugar
in the corn kernels begins to
turn to starch --with resulting
loss of flavors. Cold temperat-
ures slow down this process, so
corn should be kept in the ref-
rigerator until it's going to be
eaten. Remember --the sooner,
the sweeter!
