"Canned corn especially has a variety of creative uses and makes a wonderful addition to soups, salads, and casseroles. While it is safe to eat right out of the can, rinsing your canned corn first is a simple step that helps eliminate some of the excess sodium and any lingering aftertaste from the can. The rinsing process takes a matter of minutes and makes a world of difference in giving the veggie an extra boost of fresh taste."
"Start by carefully opening the can and gently draining any liquid from inside. Next, use cold to lukewarm water to rinse the corn and let the moisture drain for at least a couple minutes. Use a fine mesh colander in this process, such as one from the U.S. Kitchen Supply set of three colanders, to avoid the risk of losing any loose kernels down the drain."
"Keeping in mind that corn is naturally sweet and canned corn is already fully cooked, choose ingredients that complement this flavor and consistency. Among the best ingredients to add for more flavorful canned corn are basics such as butter and luxurious options such as bacon grease, miso paste, or bone broth. You can also simply toss canned corn in your favorite vinaigrette to make a luscious salad;"
Canned corn is a shelf-stable, fully cooked vegetable that works well in soups, salads, casseroles, and quick snacks. Rinse canned corn to reduce excess sodium and remove any metallic aftertaste from the can. To rinse, open the can, drain the liquid, run cold to lukewarm water over the kernels in a fine mesh colander, let drain for a couple minutes, and pat dry if needed. Rinsing takes minutes and refreshes flavor and texture. Enhance rinsed canned corn with butter, bacon grease, miso paste, bone broth, vinaigrettes, other rinsed canned goods like beans and potatoes, and cheeses such as feta, cotija, or queso fresco.
