Cheddar Corn Pudding With Bacon Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F.
• Mix first 5 ingredients until blended; stir in 1/2 cup cheese. Pour into 2-qt. casserole sprayed with cooking spray.
• Bake 40 min. Meanwhile, combine bacon, onions and remaining cheese.
• Top casserole with bacon mixture; bake 15 min. or until lightly browned.

Steps:

• Prepare the crust: In the bowl of a food processor fitted with the blade attachment, or in a large bowl, pulse or mix together flour, cornmeal and salt until combined. Add butter, and either pulse or use your finger to smoosh it in until butter is the size of lima beans. Add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and pulse or mix just until dough comes together. There should still be large flecks of butter left in dough. Shape dough into a disk and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 1 hour before baking. (Dough can be made up to 5 days ahead.)
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer dough to a 9-inch pie plate; trim and crimp edges. Chill for 30 minutes.
• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Prick the bottom of the pie with a fork. Line with foil or parchment paper and fill with pie weights, dried beans or rice. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove foil or paper and pie weights or beans. Bake until pale golden and dry to the touch, about 5 to 7 minutes more. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees.
• While crust is chilling and baking, prepare the filling: Cut red onion in half across the equator (not root to stem), then from the center, cut out two very thin, round slices. Separate onion slices into rings and put them in a bowl with lime juice and a pinch each of salt and sugar. Set aside while you assemble the rest of the tart. Coarsely chop remaining onion and set aside.
• Scatter bacon in a cold 12-inch skillet. Turn heat to medium, and cook until the bacon is golden and the fat has rendered, 10 to 14 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to a paper-towel-lined plate. Leave fat in the skillet.
• Stir chopped onion into pan with bacon fat and place over medium heat. Sauté until golden-edged and translucent, about 6 minutes. Stir in corn, 1/2 teaspoon salt and chopped pickled jalapeño. Cook until corn is tender, 2 to 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat and scoop 1/2 cup corn mixture into a blender. Add cream, sour cream and eggs. Blend until you get a thick purée. Using a spatula, scrape corn purée back in pan with whole corn kernels, and stir in 1/2 cup Cheddar, the parsley and the cooked bacon. Scrape into baked pie shell.
• Top filling mixture with pickled red onion slices and jalapeño slices. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup Cheddar.
• Bake until puffed, golden and just set, 35 to 45 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• In a large stockpot over medium-high heat, cook the bacon and olive oil until the bacon is crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and reserve. Reduce the heat to medium, add the onions and butter to the fat, and cook for 10 minutes, until the onions are translucent.
• Stir in the flour, salt, pepper, and turmeric and cook for 3 minutes. Add the chicken stock and potatoes, bring to a boil, and simmer uncovered for 15 minutes, until the potatoes are tender. If using fresh corn, cut the kernels off the cob and blanch them for 3 minutes in boiling salted water. Drain. (If using frozen corn you can skip this step.) Add the corn to the soup, then add the half-and-half and cheddar. Cook for 5 more minutes, until the cheese is melted. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Serve hot with a garnish of bacon.

Steps:

• Soak the corn in the milk for 15 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Generously butter a 1 quart baking dish. Melt the 2 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour; cook it for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring. Drain the corn and whisk the reserved milk into the flour mixture. Simmer it until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the eggs. Stir in the corn, salt, pepper, and bacon. Pour the corn mixture into the prepared pan and sprinkle the cheese on top. Bake it until brown on top and firm to the touch, about 45 minutes. Let it cool for 10 minutes before spooning it into bowls and topping it with green onions.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Grease a 2-quart baking dish with margarine (Discard excess).
• Cook 3 slices of bacon until crispy. (Discard drippings).
• Chop bacon into small pieces.
• Melt butter (I use the microwave for approximately 25 seconds on high).
• Beat eggs, butter and spices together in a 2-quart bowl.
• Then add flour, creamed corn, light cream, & bacon and mix together until flour lumps are smooth.
• Pour mixture into the baking dish.
• Bake for 90 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
• As it cools, the corn pudding deflates.
• Serve warm. (I love it chilled too!).
• Enjoy!
