Corn on the Cob, Yellow – A Vegan Pantry Ingredient from Vegan Venue
Corn on the Cob, Yellow is a vegan pantry ingredient that we buy and eat immediately, or refrigerate to preserve freshness to eat within a few days. See more about it below.
More About Yellow Corn on the Cob:
Most people probably think of corn on the cob as a vegetable, but it is really a grain. There are several common varieties of corn on the cob: white, mixed white and yellow, and the yellow, pictured here. In our experience, we have seen only the yellow variety sold frozen either on the cob or cut. We have found a variety of flavors in corn on the cob depending on where it is grown and how long it has been since it was harvested. The longer it has been since the corn was harvested, the more bland the flavor, and the more “gummy” the texture. We have found it best to buy only fresh corn on the cob that has a nice green husk. See the nutritional chart below for raw and cooked corn.
