THE SIMPLEST CORN PUDDING



The Simplest Corn Pudding image

This recipe is deliberately, exquisitely simple, with pure sweet corn flavor. Grate corn kernels directly into a cast-iron pan and place in the oven, without any seasonings. The corn releases its milk, which thickens, and the kernels turn golden and lightly caramelized around the edges. Only then do you season it, and only lightly: A bit of butter, a sprinkle of salt and cayenne, and the juice of half a lime. Mix. Serve. Adding the seasoning at the end allows you to better control the taste of the finished dish.

Time 40m

Yield 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 ears of corn, husked
1 tablespoon butter
Salt
Cayenne pepper
Half a lime

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place a box grater on a medium cast-iron pan, and finely grate each ear of corn directly into the pan. Discard the cobs.
  • Spread the milky corn evenly across the pan, and bake until the edges and top are golden brown and the corn milk has thickened, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Remove from heat, and transfer corn and any liquid to a bowl. Add butter, and season to taste with salt, cayenne pepper and a squeeze of lime juice. Mix well.

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn. Fresh corn has a sweeter, more flavorful taste than canned or frozen corn.
  • Don't overcook the corn. Overcooked corn will be tough and chewy. Cook the corn just until it is tender.
  • Use a good quality cheese. A good quality cheese will add a lot of flavor to the corn pudding. Use a sharp cheddar cheese or a Monterey Jack cheese.
  • Add some chopped vegetables. Chopped vegetables, such as bell peppers, onions, or jalapeños, can add a lot of flavor and texture to the corn pudding.
  • Bake the corn pudding in a water bath. Baking the corn pudding in a water bath will help to prevent it from drying out.

Conclusion:

Nick's Corn Pudding is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up fresh corn, and it is also a great dish to take to potlucks or picnics. With its creamy texture, sweet corn flavor, and cheesy goodness, Nick's Corn Pudding is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
