Do you prefer to cook the corn down to a soft texture or with fresh corn, do you prefer an al dente texture for the corn?

I prefer a firm texture for corn in pretty much all dishes.

I like the corn to still have a little bite, so sometimes I will hold some back and add it near the end of cooking to get both soft caramelized corn as well as snappy fresh corn.

That would be a good method. Layered.

Personally cook it down with the ultimate option being corn leftover from a seafood boil.

I like it blanched or fresh. Or left over from a boil. If it’s good corn, I will pretty much eat it.

My mom only makes it this time of year with fresh shucked corn. It comes out a lot like thick creamed corn, then right before its time to eat, she adds the crawfish and a few cobs worth of kernels she held back for crunch.

Like that.
