Sauteed Corn With Thyme And Lemon Recipes

SAUTEED CORN WITH THYME AND LEMON

Steps:

• Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium high heat. Add corn, thyme, lemon juice and sugar and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

CORN AND THYME SOUP

Steps:

• Cut the corn kernels off the cobs and set aside. Use the back of a chef's knife to scrape the juice from the cobs into a medium saucepan. Add the cobs to the saucepan along with the sprig of thyme and enough water to just cover the cobs. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 30 minutes. Remove the cobs and thyme and then strain the corn broth into a medium bowl or large measuring cup. (You should have about 4 cups. Add water if you have less. If you have more than 4 cups, then return to the saucepan and simmer until reduced to that amount.)
• Heat the oil in the saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, thyme leaves and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally until the onion is soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the reserved corn kernels and cook until the corn is just cooked through, 2 to 4 minutes. Stir in the corn broth and remove from the heat.
• Working in batches, puree the corn mixture in a blender until very smooth, 3 to 4 minutes per batch. Return all the soup to the saucepan and simmer until hot, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

SAUTEED FRESH CORN

Steps:

• Remove the husks and the silk from the corn and cut the kernels off as close to the husk as possible without removing any of the husk. You should have about 7 cups of kernels.
• Melt the butter in a large, heavy saute pan. Add the corn, salt, and pepper and saute uncovered on medium-low heat for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until all the starchiness in the corn is gone. Taste, for salt and pepper, and serve.

BAKED CORN WITH THYME

• In a bowl stir together the corn, the cream, the thyme, and salt and pepper or taste, spoon the mixture into a buttered 6-inch baking pan or gratin dish, and sprinkle the bread crumbs on top.
