Tip: When choosing sweet corn, opt for cobs with fresh green husks that are tightly hugging the corn. Avoid dry, yellow, rough, or moldy husks. Select corn with dark brown silk that is soft and firmly attached to the cob. Stay away from corn with black, withered, or sparse silk.

2How to Make Sweet Corn Stir-fried in Soup

Step 1 Prepare the Ingredients

For the sweet corn, use your hands or a knife to remove the kernels, keeping the cobs for making the broth.

Rinse the pork bones and set them aside to dry. Clean the scallions and chop them finely, separating the scallion whites and greens.
