I freeze gravy in ice cube trays and then transfer to ziplock.  Great to toss into dinner when I don't have time to make gravy, great to toss into shepard's pie, etc....  And sometimes we thaw to put on baked potatoes.

Fresh baby ears of corn...yummy!  Salads, stir fries, stews, cut up in soups.  I use canned only if fresh is not available.

You could freeze the gravy for a future meal, where you don't normally make a gravy. 

I've never cooked with the baby corns.  I remember being a very young child, maybe preschool years, and they had them on the relish trays at a party.  I ate them like a big ear of corn, and gave the family a laugh.

Thanks for the answers. :)

As for left over gravy....

Beef gravy I would use for hot hamburger sandwiches. Or meat loaf or Shepard's pie.

Pork gravy, maybe use on mashed potatoes with pork chops.

What do you do with leftover gravy?  I know that sounds ridiculous to some people, but I cook a lot of whole cuts of meat and end up with a lot of extra gravy. 

I will eat it over toast sometimes for cheap country food, but I don't think that I could convince anyone aside from DS to do that.

I made a pork roast and the gravy is so, so good.  But I have maybe 3 times as much gravy as I have meat left right now.

I've only seen them alone canned or jarred, and I'm not a huge fan of them that way.  I like them when I cook from frozen, but I have only ever seen them that way in a stir fry veggie mix.

We used to get them jarred which was tastier than canned.  None of the kids are fans and DH is meh, so I really haven't tried again in many years. 

I do tend to rinse and rerinse canned veggies.  With the exception of canned green beans which I adore - don't throw shoes at me.

I've never seen them any other way...only canned.

I have been thinking of using baby corns in some dinners. Not kernels but tiny cobs of corn.

I have seen them canned. Is that the only (best?) way to buy them? I'm not a big fan of canned veggies in general.

For those times you have a recipe/cooking/food question that does not fit anywhere else.
