I didn't check in yesterday - I was freezing corn! My son and I did 10 dozen (2 bushel) in a couple of hours.

We tried a new way lasy year (wife did it). We shuck the corn, cut the corn from the cob, and cook. Freeze in plastic freezer bags. It works absolutely wonderful (the wife knew best!?).

"Recipe"
8 cups corn (cut from cob)
2 cups water
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons sugar
Cook for 5 - 7 minutes. Put in bag and immediately cool with ice water bath. Put in freezer asap.

I found the best part was that the corn was cold when cutting it. Each batch sized above "filled" three quart freezer bags.

On another note, we pick and freeze with a couple of hours - way less starch.
