Amaize is a white variety of sweet corn that is unlike any other corn you have tasted. At first bite, the tender kernels pop off of the cob with a liveliness you don't get with other corn. They have a delicate texture and a sweetness that I have not found from any other corn.

If you wish to store corn for a longer time, consider storing it in a freezer. Before doing so, you must remove them from the knob, blanch them, and then store them in an airtight container. If you skip the blanching step, your corn will lose its yellow colour and sweet flavour.

The kernel of maize consists of a pericarp (fruit wall) fused to the seed coat. This type of fruit is typical of the grasses and is called a caryopsis. Maize kernels are frequently and incorrectly referred to as seeds.
