Six stars if I could! I too make this without the MSG, and it's a hit every Thanksgiving. Thanks for sharing!

I don't know about Gulliver's starting in the Bay Area as I'm native Southern California and it was Gullivers in the Long Beach/LA area... went to it as a kid and my mother got this recipe from a friend who served there about 38 years ago! This has been a staple of our Thanksgiving menu for the past 30 years and is requested EVERY year! It is delicious!!! Gives a whole new meaning to Cream Corn!!

I am curious if sprinkling in some real cornmeal at the beginning would add flavor & texture to this. Agree that evaporated milk should be used. I was looking for a non-bake side dish for T-Day.

Good recipe. I was looking for "drippy corn" that hubby loves and had an abundance of fresh corn I'd cut off the cob. I avoid MSG, so I dashed with some soy sauce. I don't know who Gulliver is, but my Southern family enjoyed this side dish.

This was good, but not quite what I had hoped. I used evaporated milk as suggested by other reviewers in place of regular milk. I also did not use any msg. However, I followed the directions exactly. It just didn't thicken up for me. I ended up adding a bit of cornstarch in desperation, which did help a little. It was good, but I'm not sure it'll be a repeat for us. Thanks for sharing!

This is our favorite creamed corn year round! Try it with fresh in the summer corn, mmmm. I lighten it by using 1 C skim and 1 C 2 %, sometimes 1 C half and half instead of 2 %, use Smart Balance instead of butter, no MSG. I also use my stick blender and chop up what would be about equal to 1/3 of the finished corn mixture. Adjust sugar to sweetness of the corn.

This is my 'go-to' Cream Corn recipe for holidays! I'm in So Calif and we still have a local Gulliver's. I've been making this more than 25 years. Got so popular I had to use a 5# bag of corn every Thanksgiving and Christmas! It's just the best in cream corn!

This is very good! A hint: use Bragg's Liquid Aminos or a touch of tamari (richer soy sauce) for MSG's savory/umami flavor. Or add finely chopped sauteed mushrooms if the people eating it don't mind.

One and only creamed corn recipe I'm trying. I have never made creamed corn and have only had it from a can prior to this. WOW its like 2 totally different things, my boyfriend said it was so good I should make it every night. We grow our own corn and was looking for a new corn sidedish to make. It was so good I'm going to make it for Thanks giving I think. I did not add the msg, used fresh ground black pepper instead of white or cayenne, and doubled the flour and butter. Was extra creamy , thick and perfect.
