COMMENT:
I was first intoroduced to Silver Queen corn by my good friend,
Fred Miller. Fred lived on Lake Bruin in Tensas parish, Louisiana.
Knowing that I loved boiled corn, he delivered a sack of his fresh-picked
Silver Queen to my doorstep. I'll never forget his words, "John,
now you'll find out what real corn tastes like!" Well, Fred
was right. I'll always remember him for introducing me to the best
corn in the world.

parsley, green onions and margarine. Season to taste using salt
