Corn is a good thing. Since its appearance, it has greatly solved the hunger problem of the broad masses of the people.
-
If you get corn as a birthday present, don't set it aside, but eat it as soon as possible, lest it soften and shrink, causing pointless waste.
Before eating corn, check the appearance first.
Peel off the layers of leaves wrapped around the corn, and now there are many colors of common corn, some are reddish, some are yellowish, and there are purple waxy corn and white fruit corn.
No matter what kind, as long as it is in your own heart, you must treat it well.
After finding the corn you like, it's time to start cooking the corn.
Some people like to cook with the skin on, but most people don't like to choose this method, because the changes in the corn kernels cannot be observed in real time, and it is easy to cause it to be too old and even become popcorn.
Before selling corn, some conscientious merchants will peel off the corn husk and tie it with a red ribbon, because this can sell at a high price, or it is particularly ceremonial, allowing consumers to have a better experience.
There are many corn silks on the corn. These silks have no effect on the body. If you really don’t want them, you can negotiate with the merchant to remove them. If you don’t want to remove them, they will not have any impact on subsequent cooking.
Healthy corn has many whiskers, and you need to be patient when eating them. Don’t hurt those corn whiskers that have the effect of lowering blood pressure. The fresh and juicy corn kernels are just under the thick whiskers. Pull away those dark and soft corn whiskers , you can see the fruit.
Before putting it into the pot, you can try to squeeze the soft fruit particles. Be careful, if you use too much force, the juice inside the fruit will be squeezed out.
The milky white slurry extruded from the corn fruit can also be eaten raw. Everyone's taste is different, maybe it will feel a little sweet, maybe it will feel a little astringent, depending on the individual situation.
After the water boils, put the corn in the pot and cook until it is half-cooked.
Overripe corn tastes too old, not particularly delicious, and it will also make the waiting time longer and affect the mentality.
When the corn is almost cooked, you can fish it out and put it in a bowl.
The freshly cooked corn is very hot, and there is no way to handle it by hand. Eating it is also a big problem. For safety, a prop is needed.
Choose a chopstick of moderate thickness. Although chopsticks that are too thin are more convenient to use, they are easy to break, and the corn cob is very hard. Be patient when using chopsticks and don't rush for success.
Not once but twice.
Be careful not to use too much force, or the tender corn may split in the middle and fall to the ground, making it inedible.
The overall taste of boiled corn is relatively tender, and there is also a lot of water. If you use too much force, a lot of water will overflow along the place where the chopsticks are inserted and burn your mouth, so be careful.
Next, it’s time to eat. The tender corn just out of the pan is very soft and hot, so be careful when eating it.
Don't be rude, you can lick it first, and then gently bite the plump and juicy fruits with the tip of your teeth, so that the juice inside is completely wrapped in your mouth.
But generally speaking, as you eat, you will completely ignore your image, and your hands will be covered with the white, slightly sticky juice of tender corn.
It's okay to wash it off, but the corn hasn't been eaten yet, so it's too bad to leave like this.
You can choose to lightly suck the juice on your fingers, lick the drop that is about to drop to the ground due to the accumulation of too much plumpness, hold it in your mouth, and taste its taste lightly.
After the corn is eaten, the chopsticks that have been inserted into the corn cob can be pulled out.
Remember to pull it out gently. Because there is too much moisture inside the corn, when the chopsticks are pulled out, a lot of water will flow out along it.
At that time, the water is no longer hot, and it is fine to drink or wash them off.
If you can’t read it, it means you haven’t reached the age where you can enter the kitchen at will. Children are not allowed to enter places with open flames and electrical appliances, which is very dangerous.
