Do U Have To Blanch Corn Before Freezing?
Yes, it is recommended to blanch corn before freezing it as blanching helps to kill any bacteria or enzymes that could cause the corn to spoil, and it also helps to preserve the corn’s texture, color, and nutrient content during the freezing process. Blanching involves boiling the corn on the cob for a few minutes and then immediately immersing it in ice water to stop the cooking process. Once blanched, the corn can be removed from the cob and stored in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to six months.
