The fun thing about corn is that the answer to this question is ‘both’. Fresh sweet corn is a vegetable that can be enjoyed when boiled. Very young corn ears can be eaten raw, along with the silk and cob, which makes them a nice ingredient for fresh salads. When the plan matures, it dries and both the cob and silk become inedible. At this time, corn seeds become very hard and impossible to eat without boiling and cooking them for up to an hour.

Organic Corn: Storage Tips Food To Live Organic Corn doesn’t have any special storage requirements. You just have to keep it dry at all times. Storing it away from heat and direct sunlight is preferable as both reduce the nutritional value of the product. Generally, corn keeps extremely well because it contains only the tiniest amount of fats. This means that unlike most whole grains, the risk of corn going rancid is minimal. However, you must ensure that the kernels remain dry. Humidity and bacteria can cause mold, which will ruin the product. Never consume moldy corn or any other food as it’s potentially dangerous. If you want your storage of Food To Live Organic Corn to last indefinitely, put it in the freezer. Be sure to arrange it in such a way that it’ll be easy to take a portion out to defrost. Re-freezing any type of food greatly diminishes its nutritional value. It also affects the taste and texture, making the product bland and unpleasantly grainy. Keep this in mind if you have frequent blackouts and there is a risk of freezer being on and off. In this case, it might be best to keep your corn supply in a cool pantry. Due to its extended shelf life, you can buy Food To Live Organic Corn in bulk.
