I have had better luck with cob corn if I shock it quickly - simply dip in hot water and then in ice water. Then I dry it and put it in the freezer bag that you pump the air out of. I have about 60 ears in my freezer. My kids love cob corn and I like to surprise them at Thanksgiving and Christmas with it.

THAT'S the way that my mom likes to eat cornbread too. Never saw my grandma eat it that way - just my mom. If I remember correctly that was only if the cornbread was room temperature. If it was hot then we ALL ate it with the home churned butter that my grandmother used to make. OH MY!!! Now I have made myself hungry and no corn meal or real butter in the house. I guess I will have to get that tomorrow at the grocery.
