Ingredients

  • Corn kernels (dried)… Do not use canned corn, as these are intended for making corn soup and cannot be grilled.
  • Cream (if you don’t use it, skip directly to step 3. You need to add an amount greater than the height of the corn kernels, and it’s important to heat the oil paint beforehand)
  • sugar
  • salt
