Another way to prepare cream style corn for canning is to cut and scrape the corn from the cob without blanching. Place the cut corn in a double boiler, and heat with constant stirring for about 10 minutes or until it thickens; allow to cool by placing the pan in ice water.
A pressure cooker does the job in about 20 minutes. Autumn's hard-skinned squash varieties also demand long cooking times, either by steam and oven-roasting. Last week, we put the pressure cooker to the test with spaghetti squash. This week, we cooked butternut squash to the soft stage in just 10 minutes. Place the cubed squash in the pressure cooker with 1 cup of water. Place the lid on the pot, lock the lid into place and bring the cooker to full pressure, according to the manufacturer's instructions. Cook for 10 minutes and release pressure.
