- This corn was a favorite when I was growing up but I have not been able to find it in the stores recently. I was thrilled to find this recipe. It is so easy to pressure can, so pretty to look at, and so good to eat!

I just can’t thank you two enough! I bought a Nescoe electric canner and learned how to use it by watching you and your videos. I’m 74 and had never canned a thing in my life! I just had a terrible bout of the flu, very sick for 5 days and I live alone. Because of YOU I had a small supply of delicious and nutritious chicken soup, potatoes and a few other things.. and now will can up this corn. When I could hold liquids down I was able to have the chicken soup and finally recover. You are helping all of us in more ways than you can imagine.. much love to you both 💕💕💕
Congratulations on learning to can your home foods! It is so exciting and comforting to have this skill. I'm glad that you are feeling better. I live alone too so I understand how that is. Stay well and keep canning!❤
I was thinking about getting the presto electric but the nesco is cheaper. Is there anything you don't like about it?
@@ericaharris6897 I love it! It is simple and so easy to use (from me, who was afraid to try pressure canning!). Good luck😊
I got mine and excited to learn about it. Sewer issues stopped me this past weekend.
Praying that you are doing much better.
I did 12 pints of this last month. We have already used it in soup, Mexican beef enchiladas, as a side with rice and beans for a meatless Monday, and cold with canned chicken salad. I need to make another 12 pints. I read to use a small amount of pickle crisp to keep the pepper color, I think I will try with a couple of the pints.
Mexican Street Corn:
3c. corn, 1 cup chopped onions, 1 cup mixed bell peppers, chopped, 2 teaspoon cumin, 2 teaspoon oregano, 2 teaspoon salt. Divide into 4, 1 pt jars, & fill with vegetable broth. Wipe rims of jars with vinegar and place lids finger tight. Process 55 minutes.
Thank you for putting up directions. I usually pause and start] to write recipe
Hi Pam and Jim! Haven't commented in a long time but want to share a tidbit. (see the end for the advice) I did this exact recipe in my Instant Pot Max yesterday and the Max blew an error code! The display was flashing and where the time would be it read "Alt". Did some research and found that there are 2 probable causes: (1) the altitude is set incorrectly; (2) the Max failed to reach/maintain correct temperature/pressure. I will go with 2 because I confirmed the altitude, tried again and same thing again -- 30 minutes into processing. I tried 2 more times, even unplugging the device but to no avail. So that batch of Mexican corn has be heated to pressure and maintained at pressure 4 times at around 30 minutes each plus the cooldowns (it won't restart until it cools to an extent).
Here's the advice: absolutely take a picture of any errors on the display. I called the company, explained that the Max was purchased literally one year to the date, everything I did, etc. and the woman said they would start a warranty return ticket and replace it, but that I had to reply to the e-mail with requested information (photos of various bits). One of the photos they wanted was a photo of the error! Well, dang, that meant I had to recreate the exact situation again. So I did and this time it got past the 30 minute mark but eventually the error happened again, wrecking yet another canning session. I took the photo and replied back.
So, 2 bits of advice to share: (1) Be sure to register your product. I did and they had my info in their records. (2) Absolutely take a picture of any error on the display. If it becomes an error that can't be solved, you will have the evidence you need for service under warranty.
Update: I heard back from Instant and the Max is no longer manufactured. They have offered me a free upgrade to the Instant Pot® Pro™ Plus 6-quart Smart Multi-Cooker. That made me nervous until I confirmed that it absolutely does canning. Whew. I hope this info is somehow useful because your community will no longer be able to purchase the Max once existing stock runs out from vendors.
About that pesky ‘keep warm” feature on the Instant Pot Max, all you need to do is tap your finger on the screen icon, and then the icon will change to reflect no stream rising above the little pot (which indicates the keep warm feature is turned off). Unfortunately, this feature turns on everytime you use the Max, but it is an easy fix. Thanks for the wonderful idea of Mexican corn. Instead of canning it I plan to freeze dry the mixer and then will use the vegetable broth to rehydrate it rather than using water. You could easily do this for your trail grazer channel. Please keep up the wonderful job you are both doing.
@MMM - I don't have a Max but was thinking that would work. Thx for the info. You never know, I may own a Max someday.
I want to try this but I will substitute poblanos for the green bell peppers. I don’t think they will fade quite as much and add a little spice! At our house we say a little spice is nice!
Thank you!
Just remember that the longer that sits on the shelf the Poblano spice will increase.
@@oliviablackstar6339 I hadn’t thought of that but I’m going to do a smaller, experimental batch…if it’s too hot we can always give it to the chickens!
♥️🌶🐓👍
Great idea! I'm 57 yrs old and being a Northerner, I never knew what Mexican corn was until I stumbled upon it at our local Safeway. I LOVE the stuff, but it's pricey! Luckily hubby says we are going to grow LOTS of corn this year in our garden so I'm happy to have this recipe.
Thanks guys, love from the North!! 💗💗
Our pleasure! Jim
I made this yesterday, and had a jar that did not seal. I decided to practice a grid down meal. Pulled a jar of black beans and a jar of Chipotle beef and added the corn. Made a quick fry pan Flatbread, and holey moley.....it was pretty darn good!! I can also see it as a soup with a can of chicken breast and some stock. I WILL be canning more!! Thanks for the great idea!
Sounds very good. Jim
It used to be called Mexicali corn and was always my favorite. Thank you for this recipe. I sure will make it. Love it!!!
This recipe looks delicious. You gave me a future dinner idea. Fast black or pinto beans, mexican corn, tortillas and/or taco's! Thank you!
First, I love your hair more natural ❤️ I too love Mexican corn, and you're right, I haven't seen it in the stores for quite some time.
This is one of my favorite types of corn. I will try this . As long as the flavor is there the green peppers can look any way they want. Thanks again.
Great idea. I love Canning Frozen Vegetables. I'll try this next. I use the Presto Precise Digital Pressure Canner.
Hi Pam, l made the corn and loved it! Canning my second batch today. I could never thank you enough for all you do! Sending a giant hug!
I think you read my mind. I was just talking with my mom yesterday about needing to learn how to can Mexican corn. Thank you ☺️
Pam & Jim, you are the best. I love all your videos and have learnt so much!
I live in Australia 🇦🇺 where canning is only just taking off.
Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou!!
Oh and I’m particularly loving these latest videos! Xo
My family loves this corn recipe! Thank you
This looks so good. My mother used to fix this for our supper with fried potatoes and pinto beans. 😊
Back in the good all days when it wasn’t GMO
I have a recipe that calls for Mexican Corn and I’m always surprised at how much it costs at the store. I’ll definitely try this!
Thanks, Pam and Jim. Great idea. I would not have thought to can this.
Ohhh bet it’s good. I kind of remember this as a child, of course in Canada we didn’t have as much Mexican inspired foods but somehow I remember this. I think I will add this to my pantry shelves. Thanks 🇨🇦🌷
You always remind me of my 4-H days! Good memories.
I made this recipe a few months ago as my husband grew up with more real Mexican food in Southern California/Az area. He thought it had a little too much oregano but definitely a big fan of this recipe. Pints are perfect for the two of us. Thanks!
Another HAVE to try canning recipe Absolutely love your hair today
I'm down to my last jar. I had canned up some a few months back in my Presto Digital canner. I had recently purchased it and thought this was an easy recipe to give a test run, This canned corn is delicious. I only used red bell pepper for the peppers and go easy on the cumin because we are not big fans of too much of its flavor. I did use organic frozen corn though I do believe all corn even organic now is GMOed.
Thank you I love Mexican corn And Pam you look so lovely today.❤
Thank you for this very timely video. I have 8 lbs. of frozen corn waiting on me to can. I know what I will canning tomorrow in my brand new Presto Precise electric canner! Thank you so much for all of the tests and videos that you and Jim have done on electric canners. I also have an IP Max and love it! I have the option to turn off the keep warm function on mine. I have learned so much from you! God bless you both!
Thank you! Jim
Yum!
I really like this recipe and that it’s only four pints
This is on my list to make this week. I was thinking that the roasted corn stock that I bottled up would be delicious in place of the vegetable broth. Gonna give it a try. Thanks for all you do. I always look forward to your videos. (And you remind me of my sweet red headed grandma that I miss so much.)
Interesting, let us know how it works. Jim
Hmm.. sounds good. I’m using fresh corn so I’ll repurpose the cobs for broth. Gonna substitute one ground, Morita pepper (chipotle’s smaller and fruiter brother) for the black pepper. It’s got a fantastic smoky flavor and considerable heat, which are everything, to me😊
Bet this would be good in a dish with some rice and chicken!
This was my favorite thing I canned last year. We use it in tacos/fajitas/quesadillas as well as a side dish for various meals. I will be canning twice as much this year.
Thank you for another great canning idea. Love your hairdo today!
We love Mexican corn! I also enjoy seeing your various gadgets. Thank you for sharing!
This is awesome! I used the Ball book to can some succotash and unexpectedly,my husband loved it! So I will be canning more of that but also going to can some Mexican corn. TFS
It looks wonderful. I would like to can this but also add Poblano peppers 🌶 and Cilantro with your mixed bell peppers and onions.
Now this canning video on Mexican Corn is fabulous and I will be canning it soon, but I will be canning in quart jars because my family loves this type of corn. Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us.
Hope you enjoy, Jim
Thank you for sharing this. Looks so simple. I'm going to try this.
Always good video. Love the corn😂❤❤❤❤
Another recipe for me to try.
Looks delicious. I like to add a small bit of worceteshire to mine. Lovely with a beef steak.
Could you tell me - if you were only going to have one electric canner, which one would it be? I am saving up for one and want to get the best one I can afford.
I have the same question.
I bought the Nesco mainly because it will hold pints or quarts. I like some of the features better on the Instant Pot Max, like the temperature readout and the automatic venting. If I only needed pints, I probably would have chosen the Instant Pot Max.
I’m going to try this!
Yum
Hi. I love it too. Thank you both. Take care
This looks great. I’m going to order this
My mom always made Mexican corn for my birthday dinner, although finding fresh bell peppers in the grocery store in mid was tricky at best back in the mid-mid-60s. But as I think about it, the recipe may have come from my Mammaw in WV since no one in my Baltimore family ever served it. The only difference was that mom used some home-canned tomatoes and a bit of sugar. Mammaw was big on adding sugar to cut the acid in tomatoes so that's's where I think the recipe originated in my family. I'm looking forward to making some to can for myself.
Thank you for using the instant pot max…I have this and want to see some of the recipes that you are doing using this pressure canner. I am going to make this Mexican corn.
The Mexican Corn looks tasty! I wonder if blanching the green peppers briefly in water with a little baking soda added then rinsing them off and adding them to the jars to be canned would help the green color not fade as much?
I saw on a Mennonite canning channel that 25 mg of zinc (available on vitamin aisles) will keep green beans from fading. I texted the lady and she promises no change in flavor. I’m about to make this corn recipe, myself, with a few variations; this is one of them😊
I'm going to make this using fresh corn. Thanks for the recipe!
Miss Pam, I am intrigued about nixtamal. I don’t digest corn very well, but I love the taste. Could you make this with nixtamalized corn, and how would you do it? Cook it first? Or can you only use nixtamalized corn for grinding?
Thanks
My family loves a recipe I found several years ago for corn dip, which uses 2 can Mexican Corn. Will be canning this for that, and as a side dish, will be so much cheaper.
Sounds great! Jim
That looks really good! Yummy
Excited to get the ingredients and get canning!!!! Thank you for sharing.
You can turn off the keep warm function by tapping it.
That looks so good. Can you use canned corn instead of frozen corn?
I’d like to know this answer too.
Could you use canned corn?
Have you checked into Mexican street corn recipes? They're delicious & quite popular.
What a beautiful necklace you have!
Thanks! This is the recipe I have been waiting for. I have all of these ingredients and soon will be making this!
Hope you like it! Jim
My IP Max allows me to turn off keep warm. I've never had this but I think I'm going to give it a try! This has made me crave succotash, though, so maybe I'll do that as well!
🙏🏻
Tfs! Please stay safe 👍👋💜
QUESTION, could you use dehydrated corn, green poblanos and red sweet peppers, onions and a seasoning packet as well as a packet of dehydrated cheese to make as a "side" in a jar?
First, you are not supposed to can dairy. Second, I think those might be too many changes, and you would be working with an untested recipe 🤷🏻♀️
@@DutchAlaskagirl actually if you go back and read the 1st sentence, everything was dehydrated, there was no canning involved.
@@xglsc6465 I misunderstood. I thought she wanted to use previously dehydrated foods to can. Major senior moment here🥴🤦🏻♀️
No big deal😁. I could have been more clear.
Good Morning Rose....I am trying to buy your book that on sale and it will not let me put in the security code on the back. Everything else is ok...Thoughts on what to do?
I’ve done the succotash from the Ball book and it also faded but was delicious
Thanks! Love the canning videos!
Glad you like them! Jim
With thawing frozen corn, then canning it, doesn’t it make the corn mushy?
I tap the keep warm off when I’m setting the time to process. I think turning off the keep warm function hastens the cool down time.
With the cool-down, let them go naturally. Jim
I found out that I have chronic kidney disease stage 3. I have to reduce my salt intake by about 75%. I have also been pursuing the craft of canning. So I am at a crossroads and hope you can answer my question here. Is salt required in canning everything, somethings, or not at all?
Salt is not required in pressure canning. It is for flavor.
Salt does "not" aid canning in any way. If you dont want it in your canning recipes..leave it out.
I love this recipe! Since I haven't seen any lately, I usually mix a can of Rotel with 2 cans of corn. Sometimes I'll add a can of drained and rinsed black beans. But I will definitely give this a try. Could canned corn be used or would it turn out too mushy?
Pam, This looks delicious. I don't have an electric canner, so how many minutes would I pressure can this? I would probably do mine in 8 oz jelly jars to be used as a side dish for just my husband and I.
The canning times are the same in a pressure canner. But you would still have to can it for the same time as pints, since there are no tested times for half pints. But why don’t you can pints and refrigerate leftovers?☺️
@@DutchAlaskagirl Running out of jars. AGAIN ! lol
@@sharonshick30 a good problem to have, I think? It means you have food put away☺️
So if I don't have an electric canner but only a hot water bath. I should can and let water boil for 55 minutes. Curious as I really want to make this. I do can pickles jams and jellies
I don’t have an electric presto canner. I do have the presto pressure canner.
A stove top Presto canner works. Tell us about your canning experiences. Jim
Pam I really like your red laddle you use with the wood handle to load the jars. May I asked where you purchased it?
Just for practice, I always can one jar with a tattler lid. One time I was too confident and canned 12 pints with a tattler and all but 2 failed. Never again. Is that water bath or pressure?
Have you every made watermelon pickles. I love them. A great addition to the relish plate.
What temperature should i get my water bath canner up to. Sorry waterbath is all i have. My mom did this and my grandma did it this way. Just wondering
hello! can i use twist off cap for canninG?
I need to make this!😀
What pressure canner do you recommend I am looking to purchase one if you have a model # because there are so many very confusing!
This Mexican corn looks like it will be a good base for a black bean and corn salad. I am wondering if the corn can be used right from the jar, or if it should be boiled for 10 minutes as is sometimes recommended for home canned vegetables, and then cooled before adding the beans and the dressing.
I’ve been canning for over 20yrs and have always used veggies for salads right from the jar. 😉
Yum! Could chicken broth be substituted for vegetable broth? Our UGO had big boxes of Swanson low sodium chicken broth for 99 cents. I bought more than I probably should have.
I wanna make this recipe but can't find it in either of the Ball books. Is it under the name "Mexican Corn" or something different.
I've heard Instant Pots are not a safe pressure cooker for pressure canning. I could not find any info on the IP Max on the Instant Pot website. Have you researched this? What have you found?
She did a video On this that’s certainly informative.
I know you have an outdoor setup for pressure canning. Do you have a video on that set up. I was just looking at a cooktop for outside to pressure can on and thought I’d better check for any special specifications.
Yes, type in Outdoor Canning Station in the search bar above. Jim
Can this be done in nesco electric canner, that is what I have tempted to get an instant pot max too! Ty so much for your channel I have learned so much! Also can you substitute oregano or leave out? I have stomach problems with oregano.
You make spice changes to the recipe how you like it.
I am an infant in this canning business! However I appreciate all that you teach in an understandable way!!
I am from Ontario Canada. I can't say I have ever heard of Mexican corn. I'm wondering how you use it? Is it just a side dish ? Or as a condiment? Or is there other ways?
Thanks in advance!😊
I've used it in taco type soups and chilis. Don't drain the broth! I had used chicken broth when I made this and it was great in a white chicken chili.
Yummy!
Can’t you add spicy peppers to this recipe?
Just watched your video on Mexican corn. I’m canning corn tomorrow. How did you like it?
Will this work with fresh corn! I have 48 ears to cann!
Do you think blanching the peppers would prevent them from fading? Also, I can’t think of any reason why blanching them would cause an issue, but do you know of one? Thanks!
I love the thought of an electric canner. I am extremely concerned that there is no way to be sure that it is functioning properly after continued use, say 3 years later.
What would be the pressure in a stove top pressure cooker. My elevation is 3500
15 PSI or check the directions for your pressure cooker to be sure, Jim
You used frozen corn which I think is blanched and then frozen, but could I use canned corn which has been well..canned/cooked well? Wondering if the canned corn would be too cooked after I have canned this recipe?🤔
How do you prevent the corn from darkening? Every corn recipe I've ever canned has resulted, after a week or so, of the corn becoming a brownish yellow.
Google: extension.psu.edu Look for Preserving Sweet Corn Successfully. Jim
I’m considering using dehydrated onion flakes for this recipe. Is this a bridge too far? Thanks Pam ❤
Yes, definitely, JIm
Well I blew it. I was making this while on the phone with my sister and was trying to do it from memory. I did enough for nine pints but I used tablespoons instead of teaspoons for my oregano and cumin. Did not realize the error until I finished canning. Oh well I guess I will be doing another batch without the seasoning and I will just combine two jars for a meal. One seasoned and one unseasoned. I usually never talk on the phone when I am canning but because she had called me twice I decided I should answer on her third call. Oh well it's a good thing I love Mexican corn. Thanks for the recipe.
Wow! Make sure that you label them and boil both mixtures for 10 minutes. Jim
@@RoseRedHomestead I will. Thanks Jim.
This looks so good. gonna make it soon! Thank you. Also, last bunch of summers when I checked my elevation it was 1001 feet, only time I have ever checked is in summer, cause that is usually when I can stuff. Today I am making the potatoes from your other video and I checked my elevation just to be sure, and it is 918 feet . color me surprised. Is this right? I didn't know your elevation could change.
I have no idea how it changed between the two checks. It could be the way it was measured or where the they took the highest point reference. It could also be that the highest point was annexed into the local area after the first measure. Just guessing. Jim
I wanted to share this video from this person who's son is a nutritionist who mentions how to make freeze dried eggs better for re-constituting. if you would like to see his video about the three additives, using only one for each test, salt, sugar, or corn syrup, here is the link

Thanks for the suggestion. Jim
