Recipe for Preserving Corn
Ingredients
Directions
Cut the corn from the cob.
Pack the corn in a jar in alternate layers with salt.
Once tightly packed, add a thick layer of salt on top.
Tie a thick piece of cotton over the jar and cover it.
Store the jar in a cool place.
Before using, soak the corn in warm water for 1 hour to remove the salt, then boil in fresh water.
