Steps:
- 1. in a large skillet, preferably seasoned cast iron is a good choice here, cook the bacon over medium-high heat until crisp. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate, remove the skillet from the heat and reserve the drippings.
- 2. On cutting board, stand up and shave the corn from the cob with a sharp chef's knife. Return the skillet to medium low heat and add the corn kernels. With the back of the knife, firmly scrape the cobs over a shallow plate to extract as much liquid(milk) as possible. Add it to the skillet.
- 3. Season the corn lightly with salt and pepper and cook until broken down and creamy, 30 to 45 minutes. Stir often. Add water if the skillet gets too dried. Serve warm or at room temperature.

BETTER THAN GRANNIE'S CREAMED CORN
Steps:
- In a saucepan over medium heat, sweat the onion in butter and salt until translucent.
- In a large mixing bowl, place a paper bowl in the middle of the bowl. Resting the cob on the bowl in a vertical position remove only the tops of the kernel with a knife, using long smooth downward strokes and rotating the cob as you go. After the cob has been stripped, use the dull backside of your knife to scrape any remaining pulp and milk off the cob.
- Add the corn and pulp mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium high until the juice from the corn has tightened. Add the rosemary. Sprinkle the corn with the sugar and turmeric. Stir constantly for about 2 minutes. Sprinkle the cornmeal onto the corn, using a whisk to combine well. Add the heavy cream and cook until the corn has softened, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the rosemary. Season with freshly ground black pepper.
GRANDMA'S CREAMED CORNBREAD
This recipe is from Eric V. Copage's Kwanzaa book. It's hands down THE most delicious cornbread ever. Very moist (almost cake like texture) and sweet - just like I like my cornbread. The original recipe calls for 2 T sugar, but since I like mine sweeter, I use 1/4 c. This is comfort food at its finest (not health food). I usually eat w/ collard greens or cabbage.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450°.
- Pour 2 tablespoons of the melted butter into a 9-inch cake pan, and bake for 5 minutes, until the cake pan is very hot. (I never do this, just spray w/ Pam and add the butter to the batter).
- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Make a well in the center of this mixture, and pour the creamed corn, milk, remaining 2 tablespoons butter, and egg into the well. Stir until smooth. Pour the batter into the hot cake pan.
- Bake until the cornbread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove the cornbread from the oven, and let it stand for 15 minutes before serving.

GRANDMA'S CREAMED CORN
Got this recipe from Grandma today. She was sitting outside on her porch when I called, doing her word puzzles. She said it was 81 degrees today. Gotta love that Florida November weather! I digress...this creamed corn was my VERY favorite treat on Thanksgiving (and still is for that matter), or for any special get togethers....
