arrow

Sweet corn is a type of corn known for its tender kernels and sweet flavor. Unlike field corn, which is harvested when the kernels are dry and starchy, sweet corn is harvested in its immature state when the kernels are still soft, juicy, and sweet. It is a popular vegetable enjoyed both fresh and cooked in various culinary dishes. Fresh sweet corn can be eaten raw, boiled, grilled, roasted, or steamed, and is often used in salads, soups, stews, and side dishes. It is also commonly canned or frozen for extended storage and use throughout the year.
