Creamed corn is one of those dishes that has a horrible reputation because of it’s nasty version we all had when we were kids. I remember being so grossed out by the creamed corn that came from a can that I refused to eat. But when you make it from scratch, it is actually quite delicious and the perfect winter side dish!
