Ingredients

3	tablespoons	butter	or margarine
3	tablespoons	flour, all-purpose
1 1/2	cups	milk, whole	warmed or light cream
3	cups	corn kernels	cut from about 5 ears of corn
1	x	salt	to taste
1	x	white pepper	to taste

Add for variety
1	x	chives	chopped
1	x	sweet red bell pepper	julienne strips
1	x	green bell pepper	julienne strips
1	x	carrot	shredded
1	x	mushrooms	sauteed button
1	pinch	curry powder
1	x	bacon	crumbled

Directions

Melt butter, stir in flour. Add milk slowly, stirring with whisk until completely blended, thickened and gently bubbling. Add kernels and simmer about 3 minutes. Season with salt and white pepper.

Leftover Creamed Corn; pureed in blender or food processor, makes a quick sauce for shrimp, scallops or crab. Mix cooked seafood into corn sauce, simmer gently and spoon over a toasted English muffin.

Although any variety of fresh corn will do, white, thin-skinned kernels make a superb creamed vegetable dish.

Easy Onion & Herb Focaccia

Wow this was good, and I'm some stuffed! This dish was easy to make and bake and fill your face with. I added an italian blend of cheese that included provolone, mozzarella, parmesan and asiago. Served it up with Alpine Baked Pasta and it was a full meal. The sage made the dishes aromatic and extraordinary!
