This brought back some wonderful memories. All my aunts and uncles would pull thousands of ears and we would all go to my Big Mama and Granddaddy’s to put it up. Everybody had a duty from shucking to cutting. Lawd that was good times!!!! Thank y’all you made my heart smile.
Im in my 70s from Kodiac and the Ozarks. You guys got it goin on. We got a little spread ( reduced down to bout a 100 acres) in the NE Highlands of Washington state. Your video made me hungry. Aggrivating that we're just now planting n u guys are harvesting. I remember 3 cropping years. Growing food up here is difficult. Hardly ever rains and very arrid. Ground is not soil. It's an eluvial slide from the NWT of Canada millions of years ( ? ) ago. I miss farming in the South, but, i have a 35 mile unobstructed 360° pan ( no roads or poles or houses in view. Saaaweeet) so we're in really good shape removed from all the crazy bullshit down in da crowds . solar n wind n wood n mountain spring water and years of supplies on hand any day of the year. Real preppers are allways ready for SHTF. Stay strong and free. Dan n Leslie
Wanda, I was laughing so hard at you and the wormdookie. My job as a kid was scrubbing the silk off. Oh y’all, please send me the skillet full of corn.
I am sooooooooo with Wanda 😝😝😝...it’s not wasted...the chickens are getting fed so I consider that a win win , clean corn for me , feed for the chickens
When you cut the corn with a knife you need to put the tip of corn in the hole of a bunt cake pan then when you cut it off it goes in the pan. Makes it real easy to cut off the cob
Hahaha I agree with Ms. Wanda; "I don't want no worm dookie in my corn. Beautiful ears of corn. Never knew there was so much work in the harvest and the process. Thanks for sharing.
Boy my mouth is watering that stainless corn cutter was awesome we always just cut and scraped when mom and granny was living all of us would get together on everything we had some good times and always eat good had to laugh it made my day when Wanda said we had all the women helping now I got Danny lol lol I know my wife says the same thing lol
LOL!!! My Grandmother was so scared of those worms!!! She would holler every time she saw one as we were shucking the corn. Sometimes my brother would toss the tip of a corncob her way and yell,”WORM!”. She’d holler out again! She couldn’t stand the thoughts of a worm any more than she could a snake. We would all get a good laugh about it. 🥰
Happy Friday Deep South! Oh Miss Wanda I'm watching with my morning coffee and had a good laugh at your expense I'm afraid. Gotta be your new canning battle cry. No corn dooky in the kitchen lol. I don't blame you although I admit I'm like Danny and I'm eating every bite the worm didn't get first. Other worms...nope deal breakers in my maters and beans. Have a beautiful weekend 💜
I remember the corn assembly lines we had one too we planted 12-200 foot long rows Corn day was fun though boiled corn and conecuh sausage for lunch!!!
Extra protein in the form of worm or corn dooky no thank you! That corn looks amazing. I remember my Daddy having fresh tomatoes and corn for dinner and we all loved it. So sad I only got to experience that till I was 5, but I never forgot those meals and the hot melted butter Mom would pull off the stove top in her little enamel butter pouring pots. The simplest but most delicious memories. Mr. Danny I don’t use aluminum but TY for the tip. And you too Wanda you both are a blessing in all you teach about the lost ways for some of us. Thank you, so much!
The cob that wasn't ready yet looks like pearls lol thats pretty nifty. Peaches and Cream corn looks very tasty, i am a huge fan of corn I just love it. I don't care how its cooked I like it all.
My Grandpa, (a corn farmer in Illinois) always said you put the water on to boil, then go pick the corn. My mom, grandma and cousins worked on the corn and cut it off with a knife. OH, the rows that stuck together! We would just pop it in our mouths on the sly 😋 didn’t need much supper when we were doin up the corn! It only ever got froze and Grandma made a sugar salt brine to freeze it in. So good!
That’s how my granny did her creamed corn. She used the sharp side of the knife to cut off the kernels and the dull side to scrape the “milk” out of the cobs. She swore by white field corn for her creamed corn, and I must agree because it was the best creamed corn I ever had. That’s all she used in hers, too. Corn, butter, salt and pepper.
I use the knife method, and I love the juice we call milking the corn. Those bags are great, cant beat the price... Oh and I agree - yuck on corn dookie, lol
I am not squeamish over corn worms either. Every so often I'll be lucky and get to the farm market or the farm stand on years when their BT didnt work and people were putting all the ears to the side with worms in. I asked what he was going to do with all that corn on the side he was going to sell to pig farm and I had intended to feed it to my chickens. He sold me that corn $5 a bushel so of course I try it thinking the chickens will feast but when hubby and I start shucking we realized right quick that most of the damage is only on the end and we cut that bit out like you Wanda and just processed the rest for us. I now actively check and offer to buy any wormy corn. Even the big box store sold me the "bug" corn for pennies compared to regular price(local grown corn not the imported stuff) Sure a few are beyond even my tolerance for critter bites so the chickens enjoy. But it fills the freezer. Oh and we try to rotate the freezer veg/meat but had one pack of corn that must have just been lucky to hid in there it had been packed in 2011 and we found it 2018 decided its vacpacked the worse thing is it won't taste right so opened and cooked it and other than a strong "husk" taste that corn was fine. We try to freeze some on the cob too for the grandkids. They love corn on the cob during a stay hone snow day! Love your channel.
"corn on the cobb on a snow day"..... I'm weeping here! Corn on the cobb is my favorite food in the world! Cut my teeth on it...literally. Mom would eat off most of the corn, leaving a bit here and there, give toddler mee the ear...which I gummed and gnawed at....creating an 'addict' at the tender age of two! : )
I live in Northwest Washington State and I’ve never seen a worm in my corn🇺🇸🙋♀️🦋💜oh that pan fried corn looks good. When my dad was alive he would sit down to supper and say “I wonder what the poor people are eatin tonight?” Then he would state all the supper food lol. Mom never served a bad meal, it was dads way of complementing mom on her cooking🥰
I would wear a glove to cut that corn on that creamer blade. My grandma used to make fresh creamed corn with milk or cream and butter and I don't remember what else. It was the best creamed corn I ever had!
Great video. We blanch and freeze corn also. We don’t have the growing space, but purchase it by 52 ear feed bags from a local farm. We cut “whole kernel” with steak knives, just like my dairy farm aunt taught me 40+ years ago. I purchased these yellow plastic corn cutters a few years ago and they just slowed me down. I canned corn in pint jars a few years ago, but it turned a little brown. Maybe because I didn’t add salt. So we went back to freezing it.
the last time we did corn we had Bodacious and we had 10 dozen ears and got over 40 quart bags (i fill mine like you did with 2 cups per bag). That was the biggest ears ofvcorn i have ever seen in my life. We grow awesome corn here in the midwest.
Well Dannys got to be worth at least a couple old ladies cutting that corn! I remember watching my grandmother cut corn with a knife.She said you had to learn not to cut too deep and not get the tough stuff next to the cob, but not waste corn also
I love mine! I just learned to watch for the fingertips wearing down from hitting the blade as I nicked my finger after a while of using. I bought some extra pairs and will patch my first pair. So worth it!
😂🤣 When you're showing the ear that wasn't quite ready ... I'm thinking, I'm really in it for the salt and butter anyway. Sure looks like a beautiful harvest though!! Thank you 💕
Deep South Homestead We really enjoy watching you guys’ video! If you guys get bored check us out! We are just starting out so we are small but growing.... we got chickens, turkeys, ducks and PIGS now! Thanks for all your knowledge and info!
I love corn cooked like that! Next time, put a little fresh cream in it! Try growing some 'Glass Gem ' popcorn, Danny...every color you can imagine on one ear!
never liked our old flat top stove, got rid of it. Love corn review, mouth watering, lol. I use cookie sheets for form freezing goods, particularly blueberries. Great video ,Thanks
I freeze a lot (after blanching what needs it)on cookie sheets and then put it in the vacuum sealer bags. Seems to really help with the quality when you reheat it.
@@Emeraldwitch30 been awhile since I did that. But one time I gleaned enough with others' help to fill the food bank trucks. Then I brought about 100 home to my friends house. We blanched/cooled same as Miss Wanda except as you did we put them whole into my friends foodsaver. Froze them. Tasted fresh picked when we ate later. Good times.
@@misst1586 I have to freeze some on the cob for the grandbabies every year. Only about 4 meals worth but it makes it a very special treat when we have it in the dead of winter
Hi guys! Just tried to share this video with my Facebook group. Something went wrong I will try again later. Great video! I learned a lot about corn! Can't wait to try for myself! Love your videos! Keep them coming!
I've never had corn dookie. I've never grown corn either. Here's hoping I will grow corn in the future if I live a li'l longer and that I'll be blessed enough to see the corn that could have dookie. Amen!
My mom would cut corn then scrape it to get what she called "corn milk" out. Then it would get put in a big pot, a little salt and butter and that was really good tasting stuff. My second year gardening, but first time planting corn.
You two amaze me! It's so nice that you both were raised to be self sufficient and have knowledge of harvesting... then you found each other! Love learning from you as I wasn't raised with that knowledge. Blessings from Ohio
My grandfather used to take everything in from the garden and ice bath it in the bathtub to get the field heat out of it haha makes everything keep so much better!
You in the south are harvesting, while here in Ontario Canada folks are just starting to place the seeds in the dirt, if it is warm enough. We had many a late frost right until the day before mother's day. May the 9th we even had about nearly an inch of snow. Yup the white stuff. All gone later that same day. It's getting warmer now, but not as warm as other years.
Looks so good. Wanda, Danny might like that corn saute with onions and sweet peppers and being from South Louisiana, I add a liberal sprinkle of cajun seasoning. Be blessed my friends.
Yeah....I wouldn’t want corn dookie either....I busted out laughing when Mrs.Wanda said dookie because I say that too!! My daughter (she is our adopted baby) asked if Mrs. Wanda was our family 😂😂❤️!
I love corn. This is a good video and helpful. good looking chickens. Yuk, wish those worms would not invade. Love those blueberries. You folks are an inspiration to us tubers and future homesteaders. Thanks for your hard work.
You got nice full ears, good pollination. I have not had worms in my corn yet, I think it's cause it's planted down by where the chickens have their runs and free range, they get all the bugs and larvae. I am planting a type called Astronomy Dominie this year ( bout ready to till up and you are already harvesting LOL). It's a colored corn, but it's a sweet corn. Love the Stowell's Evergreen but it's so tall, the wind usually knocks it over at some point. I planted Dorinny last year, it did pretty good, shorter stalks. Wanda, I am with you , no dookie, it's gross. Thanks for the tips about what dishware to use and the cool down period, good to know!
This took me back to my childhood when my mom and aunts would work the corn. My mom's station was to cut the corn. It was almost like her knife had a "Hum-Zipp" rhythm as she cut. I love that sound. That corn looks fine! Thank y'all so much for sharing this. Nostalgic ❤
I'm with you Miss Wanda...I don't want any corn dookie in my creamed corn either! Funny word "dookie"...I've heard that word my entire life and I was surprised to hear you guys use it! I think that term reflects the migratory pattern of the early settlers from North Carolina to Mississippi. Do you guys have any ancestors from North Carolina?
Love Peaches and Cream Corn it My Favorite.. And I don't want No Worm 💩 In My Either Miss Wanda .. Y'all Do It The Same As My Family Has Done It For Year ...Love Y'all
You can also use an electric knife to cut the corn off the cob. It works great! You might need two knives as they get hot if you are processing a lot of corn at one time. Thank you so much for your videos. I learn so much and enjoy them as well!

Peaches & Cream corn is the most popular here in Ontario, Canada. And I cut out corn dookies as well. Ick!
I love the sound of corn twisting off the stalk!
I noticed that Danny was humming a tune while twisting off those ears of corn. Talk about somebody being in their element!
I love the sound of 'corn crunch' as I gobble it off the cobb! YUMMM.......... : )
These videos will be worth gold in the near future with the price of groceries and current state of the world.
Wait a minute! Corn silk tea and jelly?! I see a google hunt in my future. 🤯❤️👩🏻🌾
There ain’t nothing no better than fresh corn cooked in a cast iron skillet! Pardon my English!
Wanda, I was laughing so hard at you and the wormdookie. My job as a kid was scrubbing the silk off. Oh y’all, please send me the skillet full of corn.

What a blessing to be able to harvest corn in MAY! I'm jealous! lol Here in PA we have to wait until late June/early July. : (

Dookie...lol! I'm with ya Wanda
Save some of those worms for the fishin hole.
I like the way your lovely bride peels the corn. 👍

You have to milk it for good cream or fried corn. Yum
Danny is a good stand in for a little old lady cutter! 🤣
Morning Miss Wanda and Danny
I'm with you Wanda! Gotta clean that corn up!
I love eating the corn right off the stalk, it's so sweet 🤗
Thats what you call fresh

I did this by myself 2 year ago. But I did 3 bushels with three little kids all by myself. I canned it and it was amazing. I love canned corn.

I agree will Wanda on cutting out that part where the worm ate out of the corn.
I see a lot of Corn Dookie at work clearing blocked sewer drains.
Thanks for sharing the portion size for 2 adults. I like the knife method of cutting corn. I learn, appreciate and enjoy your content!!!!
I always use a butcher's glove when I use any type of mandolin for veggies or when I cut up meat.
Good idea
That's a great idea. I should invest. Where do you purchase?

Thanks for posting this video. This is my first year to grow corn. Nice to know what to expect.
I usually wipe down the silk with a dry cloth it gets it out easier than when its wet.

We cut out the worm stuff too... after cleaning & blanching, The damaged corn is cut corn the pretty ears are froze whole...

My husband and I kept cracking up every time y’all said corn dookie. We will forever be calling it that now! Thanks for the great laugh.

Great video. Love the way to integrated the harvest, cooking and storage details.

Don't blame you Wanda, no corn dooky for me either. Lol. Didn't realize you blanched it that long as it only takes 8 minutes to fully cook it!

You can also use an electric knife to cut the corn off the cob. It works great! You might need two knives as they get hot if you are processing a lot of corn at one time. Thank you so much for your videos. I learn so much and enjoy them as well!
I have the same corn cutter but i have done it both ways also....loved to can !!!!
Watching you do that is making my mouth water. It looks so good. Thank you for this. I planted red popcorn for the past two years. So good.
What a great video - Thank You Guys, I currently have corn growing so you have given me some very helpful tips. Cheers Denise - Australia
I just watched a video on cob jelly, can't wait to try it out, never canned before but going to try, I'm glad I found your site.
