Been reading all these recipes for corn ice cream, which gave me an idea. What if I just took the kernels off the cob, put them in the freezer, and ate them frozen, all by themselves?
Turns out it's a terrifically refreshing snack. Kind of like instant ice cream. If you take really good local corn, scrape off the kernels just after it's been picked, you end up with something that bears absolutely no relation to the frozen corn in the supermarket.
And if you really want something that reminds you of ice cream, try pouring a little cream over the frozen kernels. Amazing!
