OLD-FASHIONED SCALLOPED CORN



Old-Fashioned Scalloped Corn image

Scalloped corn is pure Americana. Enjoyed as old-fashioned comfort food throughout the United States, it's often attributed to New England, where any number of other ingredients are scalloped, like potatoes, oysters, clams and tomatoes. Cooks differ over whether to use heavy cream, condensed milk or white sauce, but nearly all agree buttered cracker crumbs or bread crumbs are essential for the topping. If you like, scalloped corn can be prepared several hours ahead of serving and reheated.

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 tablespoons unsalted butter (1 stick)
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk or half-and-half
Salt and pepper
Pinch of cayenne
1 small onion, diced (about 1 cup)
1 small red bell pepper, diced (about 1 cup)
Kernels from 6 ears fresh corn (about 3 cups)
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup crushed oyster crackers or soda crackers

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees and position a rack in the middle. Use 1 tablespoon butter to grease a 9-inch square or round baking dish.
  • Make the white sauce: Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook mixture for about 1 minute, until sizzling but not browned. Add milk 1/2 cup at a time, whisking well to keep sauce lump-free as it thickens. Raise heat and bring sauce to a simmer, then turn heat to low and cook, whisking occasionally, for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and a pinch of cayenne. Taste and adjust seasoning and set aside.
  • Put 2 tablespoons butter in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and bell pepper and cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add corn kernels, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 2 minutes more, until corn is heated through. Turn off heat.
  • Add white sauce to corn mixture and combine well, using a spatula or wooden spoon. Add beaten egg and stir well. Transfer skillet's contents to the prepared baking dish and smooth the top.
  • Sprinkle with cracker crumbs and dot surface with 2 tablespoons butter, cut in small pieces. Bake on middle rack for 30 minutes or until bubbling and nicely browned. Serve piping hot.

Tips:

  • Select Fresh Corn: Use fresh corn on the cob for the best flavor and texture. If using frozen corn, thaw it completely before cooking.
  • Use a Variety of Cheeses: Don't limit yourself to just one type of cheese. Experiment with different combinations to find your favorite. Cheddar, Parmesan, and Gruyère are all great options.
  • Add Some Herbs and Spices: Don't be afraid to add some herbs and spices to your scalloped corn. Garlic, onion, thyme, and paprika are all great choices.
  • Don't Overcook: Scalloped corn is best when it is cooked until the corn is tender but still has a bit of a bite to it. Overcooked corn will be mushy and bland.
  • Serve Immediately: Scalloped corn is best served immediately after it is cooked. It can be made ahead of time and reheated, but it will lose some of its flavor and texture.

Conclusion:

Scalloped corn is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or main course. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect scalloped corn every time. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy dish, give scalloped corn a try. You won't be disappointed!
