Southern Style Creamed Corn

1 dozen ears fresh sweet corn
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
Salt and pepper to taste
Milk or cream  (optional)

Clean corn, removing all silk.  Slit corn kernels or cut tops of corn kernels off with knife into pan.  Use a tablespoon to scrape remaining creamy kernel contents from cob into pan.  Add remaining ingredients and cook slowly on top of stove or in oven, stirring frequently, for about 45 minutes until of a creamy consistency.  Add a little milk or cream if necessary.  Correct seasoning and serve at once.

This tastes nothing like creamed corn from a can.  It is one of the wonderful fresh-from-the-garden dishes I ate at friends’ homes after we moved to the South.
