Husks: fresh, good green color (not brown/yellow/dry), tight
Kernels: bright, plump, milky, tightly arranged in rows
Silk: soft, moist, light golden pale (not brown/brittle), slightly sticky, the more silk the better
Bottom (where it was broken off the stalk): if it’s already brown – most likely it’s not fresh
Don’t buy corn that has been out in the sun all day

Remove the long stem & outer big leaves to prevent moisture loss
Store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator with the husks to protect its flavor
