If you leave your corn in the fridge or on the counter too long, you'll notice the kernels start to dry up. Cooking corn in this way, you can eat it right away or cook and then store in the fridge. Doing so will preserve its freshness and juiciness a few extra days. We recommend cooking your corn within 24 hours of buying/receiving it for best flavor--even if you don't plan to eat it all that same day.
