Shucking some sweet corn yesterday, I marveled at how impossible it is to know whether or not you’ve got good corn until you get it home and look beneath the surface. (And really not until you pull it out of the boiling water, butter it up and sink your teeth in.)
All 12 ears I bought looked the same at the market.
At home I shucked ten beautiful ears and then I pulled back the husk on the 11th and … gross!
