Keeping Sweet Corn Sweet




It's best to eat sweet corn the same day it is purchased because sugars in the corn begin converting to starches as soon as it is harvested.But since that is not always possible, use these tips to keep your corn its sweetest until you are ready to eat.

Wrap the unshucked corn in a wet paper bag. Then, place the wet paper bag in a plastic shopping bag. Wrapping the corn like this will slow the conversion of sugars to starch.

Eat as soon as possible!
