Sweet Corn extract

A couple of days ago, I put up some corn extract.  That's right:  corn extract.  "Why would anyone want that?" you may saltily ask.  The why is going to have to wait until I get around to making it.  Until then, I have to see if making a sweet corn extract will actually work.  By gum, it does!  I really think the vacuum sealer is speeding up my infusions.

The first taste after 48 hours is amazing.  It's like liquid corn.  However, is it enough to use it for flavoring.  I've decided it is not . . . yet.  Since the local Sprouts is having a 5 for $1 corn sail, I bought more ears.  Tomorrow, I plan on straining this extract and adding another ear of corn.
