Corn’s appeal lies in its sweet, juicy taste. This incredibly versatile crop is comes in a variety of forms, but is best enjoyed in its most natural state – on the cob. For most of us the image of an ear of corn conjures up blissful summer memories of braaied, buttery mielies.

Corn’s versatility lends itself perfect to everything from salads, to breads to desserts.

TOP TIPS FOR SHOPPING & STORING PAPAYA

When shopping for corn be sure to get it as fresh as possible. As soon as corn is picked the natural sugars begin converting to starch. The fresher the corn, the sweeter the taste.

Ideally you should cook and serve the corn on the same day it is purchased. Do not remove the husks until you are ready to cook it.
