More On Dried Corn. Reply to a follower.

"How do you know when you're corn is done drying? What should it look like when it is done, and how long should it take? I am new to drying corn".

Depending on the drying process you use, & the amount of heat used, it can take anywhere from 15-20 minutes in or over a fire, to two weeks or more hanging. When the corn is dry, it is noticeably smaller, shriveled, & much harder to the touch. If it is dried on the cob, it will come away from the cob with very little effort.
