Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Corn
If using fresh corn, shuck the corn and cut the kernels off the cob to yield about 4 cups. Set the kernels aside.
- 2
Melt the Butter
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Allow it to foam slightly but not brown.
Cooking
- 3
Add Flour
Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the melted butter and whisk continuously for about 1 minute to create a roux. The mixture should become slightly golden.
- 4
Combine Corn and Cream
Gradually add the heavy cream to the roux, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Then, add the fresh corn kernels, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
- 5
Simmer
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally until the corn is tender and the cream has thickened to your desired consistency.
Serving
- 6
Garnish and Serve
If desired, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese over the top before serving. Serve warm as a side dish.
