Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels
  • 1/2 cup plant-based Parmesan (plant-based)
  • 2 tablespoons plant-based butter
  • 1/2 cup heavy plant-based cream
  • 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Corn: Start by removing the fresh kernels from the cob if using fresh corn or thaw the frozen kernels. Rinse and drain thoroughly to ensure no excess moisture dilutes the creamy texture.
  2. Sauté the Aromatics: In a medium pan, melt the plant-based butter over medium heat. Add garlic powder and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant, but be careful not to burn it. This step layers in an essential flavor boost.
  3. Cook the Corn: Toss the corn into the pan, stirring frequently. Let it cook for about 5 minutes, so the kernels soften and release their natural sweetness.
  4. Add Cream and Thickener: Pour in the heavy plant-based cream along with the natural gelling agent, whisking to prevent lumps. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer while stirring continuously so it thickens and binds wonderfully.
  5. Stir in Seasonings and Parmesan: Mix in the plant-based Parmesan (plant-based) and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), then season with salt and pepper. Keep stirring for another 2 minutes until the cheese melts perfectly into the creamy corn.
  6. Finish and Garnish: Remove from heat and sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top for a fresh burst of color and flavor before serving.

Notes

  • Use fresh corn when possible for the best natural sweetness and crunch.
  • Don’t rush the simmer to allow slow thickening for a silky texture and developed flavors.
  • Stir often to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking throughout the dish.
  • Adjust seasoning at the end to taste for perfect balance before serving.
  • For extra richness, add a splash of heavy plant-based cream right before serving.
