because they need 2 ears of corn
3 to 4 ears
Well, isn't that just a happy little question! If a recipe calls for 8 ears of corn, you can typically substitute with about 4 cups of frozen corn kernels. Just be sure to thaw them before using in your recipe. Remember, there are no mistakes in the kitchen, just happy little accidents!
the recipe calls for 1/3 cup shorting cna I use corn oil instead
1 - 10oz frozen corn = 3 medium ears of corn.
Corn syrup is very thick and sticky, so if you didn't oil the measuring cup a lot of the syrup would stick to the inside of the cup. This means that you would be using less corn syrup than your recipe calls for. Using a rubber scraper works well as a substitute for oiling.
It depends on the brand. Some brands have so much sugar (of various kinds) that one bushel's worth of corn would not be enough for 400 cans. Others are low enough that one bushel would sweeten as many as 600 cans.
Corn flour, polenta, or ground oats can be used as substitutes for corn meal in a recipe.
Wouldn't recommend it. It'll add too much moisture to the recipe.
no
To determine how many big cans of corn are needed for 250 people, you'll want to consider the serving size. Typically, a big can of corn contains about 15-20 servings. If we assume each person will have a serving, you would need approximately 13-17 big cans of corn to serve 250 people, depending on the exact serving size and the number of servings per can.
It's a very fine corn flour. Some sources say it is a fine rice flour, some say it is a fine wheat flour, some even say it is cornstarch or wheat starch. I'm just passing on what I personally have been told. I will try the recipe several times using corn flour, rice flour and cornstarch to see which one is better for the recipe I will be using. Thank you very much for the information. It is most valuable.
