Birds Eye Organic Super Sweet Corn
What it is
This is a package of frozen organic sweet corn kernels. The corn is harvested at its peak ripeness and then quickly frozen to preserve its fresh taste and texture. It is grown without the use of synthetic pesticides or fertilizers, adhering to organic farming standards. The kernels are plump and have a naturally high sugar content, contributing to their sweet flavor profile.
How people cook with it
Frozen corn is a convenient ingredient for adding a touch of sweetness and color to many dishes. It can be used in both hot and cold preparations.
- Added to salads
- Mixed into rice dishes
- Served as a side
- Blended into soups
To prepare, you can cook the corn directly from frozen. For a quick stovetop method, heat a tablespoon of butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the frozen corn and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, usually about 5-7 minutes. Alternatively, you can microwave the corn in a microwave-safe bowl with a tablespoon of water, covered, for 3-5 minutes, stirring halfway. It can also be added directly to simmering soups, stews, or casseroles during the last few minutes of cooking.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to canned corn, frozen corn generally retains a firmer texture and a brighter, fresher flavor. The freezing process helps to lock in the natural sweetness and crispness of the kernels, whereas canning can sometimes lead to a softer texture and a slightly different taste due to the canning liquid.

Home cooks looking for a quick and easy way to incorporate sweet corn into their meals.
How to keep the rest
