Creamed Corn and Bacon

1. 1

   Cut the kernels from the corn and add to a medium bowl.

2. 2

   After you cut the kernels off the cob, use your knife to scrape off all the remaining pulp and milk from the cob.

   You can use the trusty Bundt pan trick if you feel like it.

4. 4

   Place the corn in the center hole of a Bundt pan and slice the kernels from the ear of corn.

   Add the onions to the skillet and saute until softened, 2 to 3 minutes.

10. 10

    Stir in the corn and its pulp, the remaining butter and the thyme.

11. 11

    Saute the corn until the thyme is fragrant and the corn is starting to turn ever so slightly golden, 2 to 3 minutes.

12. 12

    Pour in the cream and chicken stock and simmer until the corn is just tender, 6 to 7 minutes.

13. 13

    Swirl in the reserved cooked bacon and the sliced green onions.
