The state, color, smell, dust, impurities, mold and other aspects of corn have not changed. And it is generally edible, but it is best to eat it after heating. It is suggested that when buying and cooking corn, it should be avoided as much as possible, but if the excess corn needs to be stored overnight, it should also be sealed with plastic wrap or plastic bags and stored in a cool and ventilated place or a low-temperature refrigerator.

When cooking corn, you can't peel off all the corn husks, but leave one or two young leaves inside. You can soak corn in light salt water for 5 minutes. When cooking, the water has just passed the corn, so add some salt and baking soda to the water. The principle is the same as when cooking millet porridge, which is sweeter and softer after cooking.

How to choose corn

1, look at the corn kernels

When buying corn, you must first know which flavors of different colors of corn correspond to. For example, white corn is usually waxy corn, yellow corn is sweet corn, and black corn and other variegated corn are special types of corn.

Bright and transparent corn usually contains more water and tastes good. If the grains of corn are not transparent, then such corn has a high probability of being hard to eat and having an average taste.

And when buying corn, don't forget to choose a complete skin, preferably tightly wrapped, which proves that the freshness of corn is high enough and the taste must be good.

2. Look at this corn stigma

This is also part of proving the integrity of corn. The color of corn stigma proves the maturity of corn. After all, too tender corn and too old corn are not good enough, so it is not recommended that you buy them. Corn with high quality and fresh taste will have a deeper stigma. If you reach out and touch it, it may get a little wet. When you meet such corn, you should buy it quickly.
