S&W Whole Kernel Corn
What it is
This is a can of sweet corn kernels. The corn is harvested at its peak ripeness and then preserved. It offers a convenient way to enjoy the taste and texture of fresh corn without the need for shelling or cooking from scratch. The kernels are tender and have a natural sweetness that makes them a versatile ingredient.
How people cook with it
This canned corn is a pantry staple that can be added to many dishes. It is ready to eat straight from the can or can be heated.
- Added to salads
- Mixed into casseroles
- Served as a side dish
- Used in soups
To prepare, simply open the can and drain the liquid. You can then add the corn directly to your recipes as is, or heat it gently on the stovetop or in the microwave. For a simple side dish, warm the corn with a little butter and salt. It can also be incorporated into dishes like cornbread, chowders, or pasta salads, providing a burst of sweetness and color. Ensure it is heated through before serving.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to frozen corn, canned corn is already cooked and requires no thawing. It has a softer texture than fresh corn off the cob and a slightly different flavor profile due to the canning process. The convenience factor is a significant difference, as it is ready to use immediately.

How to keep the rest
After opening, transfer any unused corn to a separate container. Cover it tightly and refrigerate. It should be consumed within a few days to maintain its best quality and flavor. Keep unopened cans in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
