How many ears of corn do I need to get 1 cup of kernels? While the yield of the corn kernels will obviously vary by the size of the cob, a good rule of thumb is to assume you will get about ¾ cup per ear. See our collection of Corn Recipes for a variety of ways to use fresh corn.
Also question is, how much corn does ear yield?
One average size ear of corn yields about 3/4 of a cup of corn on average, but the answer to how much corn on a cob can range from 1/2 cup to 1 full cup of corn, possibly even more if you are consuming corn cob ears from somewhere such as the county fair.
Additionally, how many grams is an ear of corn? If weight works better for you, a cup of corn kernels should be about 4.5 ounces or 125 grams (from another blog http://www.veg-world.com/articles/cups.htm), so your three ears would be ballpark of maybe 275 grams with an assumption that exact measurement is not critical.
Subsequently, question is, how many ounces does one ear of corn yield?
One medium ear of corn will yield approximately 1/2 cup of kernels. Four medium ears of corn will yield about 2 cups, the equivalent of a 10-ounce package of frozen corn.
How many cups is 6 ears corn?
More often than not, our medium ears of corn produced 3/4 cup of kernels when cut from the cob. So if your recipe calls for 2 ears of corn, you can now confidently know that it means about 1.5 cups of corn kernels.
