Steps:
- Strip kernels from corn. Combine them with milk in a blender, and blend. (Mixture will not be perfectly smooth.) Pour into a saucepan, and heat gently until steam rises, about 5 minutes. Cover, and steep 10 to 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat oven to 300 degrees, and set a kettle of water to boil. Grease bottoms and sides of four 6-ounce ramekins with butter.
- Strain corn-milk mixture into a large bowl, and discard contents of strainer. Add salt to taste to the milk in the bowl. (Oversalt just a bit.) In a small bowl, beat eggs and yolk together, and add a little of the strained milk to warm. Pour the egg-milk mixture into the milk. Add spices, and pour into ramekins.
- Put ramekins in a deep roasting pan or an ovenproof skillet, and add boiling water about halfway up their sides. Bake about 20 minutes, until barely set (still quite jiggly in the middle). Leave flans in ramekins or remove them by inverting each over a plate about 15 minutes after they come out of the oven. Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.

Tips:
- Select the right corn: Use fresh, sweet corn for the best flavor. If using frozen corn, thaw it completely before using.
- Don't overcook the corn: The corn should be cooked until it is just tender, but not mushy. Overcooked corn will lose its sweetness and flavor.
- Use a good quality stock: The stock you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the flans. Use a homemade stock if possible, or a good quality store-bought stock.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the flans tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the flans in a water bath: This will help to prevent them from drying out.
- Let the flans cool completely before serving: This will help them to set properly.
Conclusion:
Sweet corn flans with tomato-corn relish is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer party or potluck. The corn and tomato relish is a delicious topping that adds a pop of flavor to the flans. This dish is sure to be a hit with your guests.
