What it is

The corn is typically pre-cooked and flash-frozen to preserve its freshness and texture. It is designed to be a convenient side dish or ingredient for various meals.

To prepare, you can heat the corn in a skillet on the stovetop over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through. Alternatively, it can be microwaved according to package directions.

It can also be stirred into soups, stews, or casseroles during the last few minutes of cooking to infuse them with its unique taste.
