Creamed Corn

Directions

1. 1
   Add the ears of corn to a large saucepan and bring 8 cups water to a boil (or enough to cover ears of corn).
2. 2
   Add the sugar and salt and boil until tender, about 10 to 15 minutes.
3. 3
   Remove corn to a utility platter and let cool.
4. 4
   While the corn is boiling, add the cream to a saucepan and let reduce by 1/3 over low heat.
5. 5
   While cream is reducing, cut kernels from the cobs and set aside until needed.
6. 6
   Remove reduced cream from heat and whisk in butter and Parmesan, and season, to taste, with white pepper.
7. 7
   (Add salt only if needed because the cheese will lend saltiness.)
8. 8
   Fold in corn kernels and transfer to a family style serving dish.
