Bicolor sweet corn
Bicolor sweet corn is a variety of sweet corn with kernels in two colors, most commonly yellow and white. It is known for its tender, juicy texture and naturally sweet flavor. The flavor is generally mild, buttery, and noticeably sweet, with the sweetness becoming more pronounced when the corn is very fresh. Like other sweet corn varieties, bicolor sweet corn can be eaten raw when freshly picked, but cooking enhances its sweetness and creates a softer, more tender texture. It can be enjoyed on the cob or removed from the cob and used in salads, soups, salsas, sautés, casseroles, and other dishes.

Choosing
Choose ears of bicolor sweet corn with bright green, tightly wrapped husks and fresh, moist-looking silk. The ears should feel full and firm, with plump kernels beneath the husk. Avoid corn with dry or yellowing husks, shriveled kernels, excessive insect damage, mold, or soft spots. For the best flavor, look for fresh corn and use it soon after purchase, since its natural sugars gradually convert to starch over time.
