Buying frozen sweet corn kernels and cob cuts
Sweet corn is judged on sugar and on kernel damage, and both depend on how quickly the cob gets from field to freezer, which is why we cut and quick freeze close to harvest instead of holding cobs in store. Kernels go into vegetable mixes, salads, pizza and ready meals; cob cuts go to grills, buffets and retail packs, at the length you specify. The Egyptian crop starts in November, and IQF keeps the kernels free-flowing so portioning stays exact.
