If you're a Lancaster County native, or a fan of PA Dutch foods, there is a good chance you may have heard of John Cope's dried sweet corn. Sweet corn that is grown in Central PA is harvested and air-dried and is either packaged in bags or in cans. For generations, it has been a tradition to use John Cope's corn to make a classic PA Dutch Thanksgiving side dish - baked corn!

This is the “old” recipe for Baked Corn Supreme. For some reason John Cope’s revised the recipe that they print on the packages. I much prefer the old version and it brings back memories.
