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:

  • Use fresh corn: Fresh corn on the cob is best for this recipe, but you can also use frozen corn kernels if fresh corn is not available.
  • Don't overcook the corn: The corn should be cooked until it is tender, but still has a slight crunch to it. Overcooked corn will be mushy.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the main flavor components in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that melts well. Cheddar cheese is a classic choice, but you can also use Gruyère, Parmesan, or a combination of cheeses.
  • Season the dish well: Salt and pepper are essential seasonings for this dish, but you can also add other herbs and spices to taste. Garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper are all good options.
  • Serve the dish hot: Scalloped corn is best served hot out of the oven. It can be served as a side dish or as a main course.
