Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Shuck the corn and remove all of the cornsilk.
  2. Hold each cob over a bowl and cut the kernels away in layers (don't cut whole kernels) then scrape the knife along the cob to get all of the 'milk' out of it.
  3. Melt butter in large saucepan or pot over medium-high heat. Add the onions, bell peppers, celery and tomatoes and saute until the onions are transparent, about 10 minutes.
  4. Stir in the salt and peppers, then add the corn and milk from the cobs, the sugar and the evaporated milk and stir well.
  5. Reduce heat to medium and cook until corn is tender, about 10-15 more minutes.
  6. Adjust seasonings to taste.
