Indian Corn Pudding Recipe Epicuriouscom

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F. Butter 13 x 9 x 2-inch glass baking dish. Combine first 6 ingredients in heavy large saucepan. Whisk over medium-high heat until mixture thickens but can still be poured, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat. Whisk in butter and vanilla extract.
• Transfer pudding mixture to prepared baking dish. Bake pudding until golden brown and center no longer moves when pan is shaken, about 1 hour 30 minutes. Cool 10 minutes. Scoop pudding into bowls. Top with ice cream or frozen yogurt and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275°F.
• Put corn bread cubes in baking dish. Whisk together milk, egg, molasses, ginger, and a pinch of salt and pour over bread. Let stand 5 minutes.
• Bake on a baking sheet in middle of oven until edge of custard is just set and center is still wobbly, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool pudding to warm (it will continue to set as it cools).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 13-by-9-inch baking dish and set aside. In a food processor fitted with a steel blade, puree the corn with only enough milk to make a smooth puree, not to exceed 1 cup. With the machine running, add egg yolks, one at a time, and process 30 seconds after each addition. With the machine running, add the sugar a little at a time and continue processing until mixture is lighter in color and sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Add butter and process until smooth. Transfer to a large bowl. In a separate bowl, combine flour, salt, and baking powder; fold into corn mixture. Beat egg whites until soft peaks form and fold into corn mixture, alternating with the shredded cheese. Pour into the prepared baking dish and garnish with strips of chile and red bell pepper. Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Pour the four cups of milk in the top of a double boiler and heat until very hot. Slowly stir Acorn meal into hot milk. Cook over boiling water for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Preheat oven to 300°F Lightly grease a 2-quart baking dish. (8-1/2" round).
• In small bowl, combine all the other ingredients except the cold milk. Stir into acorn meal mixture and mix well.
• Turn the acorn meal mixture into the baking dish, then gently pour the cold milk on top, without stirring.
• Bake uncovered for 2 hours or until just set but quivery on top. Do not over bake.
• Let stand at least 30 minutes before serving. Serve warm, topped with vanilla ice cream or light cream.

Steps:

• Clean the corn and grill. Test the kernels making sure they are cooked.
• Then let it cool and remove the kernels from the cob.
• Take 1/2 the corn kernels and place them in the heavy cream with the chopped thyme, honey and garlic. Puree with a hand blender.
• Add eggs and remaining corn kernels and season with the salt and pepper.
• Place in a baking dish and bake at 325'F in a water bath until the cener is firm. About 25 to 30 minutes.
• Remove from pan and cool slightly before serving.
• Bon Appetit!

Steps:

• For ice cream:
• Stir ice cream and nutmeg in medium bowl to blend. Cover with foil and freeze. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Keep frozen.)
• For pudding:
• Preheat oven to 300°F. Butter 8x8x2-inch glass baking dish. Combine cornmeal and salt in heavy medium saucepan. Gradually whisk in 21/2 cups milk. Whisk over medium heat until mixture boils. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until mixture is thick and creamy, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Whisk in butter. Remove from heat.
• Whisk eggs, molasses, brown sugar, sugar, ground ginger and cinnamon in large bowl. Gradually whisk in hot cornmeal mixture. Stir in raisins. Pour pudding into prepared baking dish. Pour remaining 1/2 cup milk over pudding (do not mix into pudding). Place pudding dish in large roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into roasting pan to come halfway up sides of pudding dish.
• Bake pudding until just set, about 1 hour 30 minutes. Remove pudding from roasting pan. Cool until lukewarm, about 20 minutes. (Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cool; cover with plastic and let stand at room temperature. Rewarm covered pudding in microwave oven on low about 8 minutes.)
• Spoon warm pudding into shallow bowls. Top with scoop of ice cream.

Steps:

• Using a non stick (or heavy bottomed) sauce pan add milk and heat on medium heat until nearly bubbling at the edges and steaming.
• Slowly whisk in the meal and whisk slowly until the meal is suspended in the milk, meaning none hanging out at the bottom of the pot. Continue whisking off and on until it reaches a medium thick hot cereal consistency. Again you *can* walk away and whisk every 5 minutes or so.
• Turn stove to low heat and continue to whisk off and on while it thickens. No need to be afraid. I have left it unattended for over 10 minutes and it will not scorch, lump or stick.
• When it reaches 'thick hot cereal' stage, stir in remaining ingredients. I usually whisk. Mix well to combine evenly.
• Leave pudding on low, stirring/whisking occasionally until thickened a bit more; 10-15 minutes approximately.
• Turn off heat and let the pan sit until it has cooled down half way, then cover with the lid and let it 'set.' Times will vary with setting. Last night it was 15 minutes or so and in 2 hours I could upturn the pan. Refrigerate and reheat gently; I use the microwave for individual servings.
• I used the high end of the cook time and will depend on your corn meal, heat of stove, etc -- I have seen many recipes making this pudding appear scary; stand at stove and never stop whisking the entire time. Fiddley sticks!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F.
• Lightly grease a 6 or 8 cup soufflé dish with butter.
• In a medium-size saucepan over medium-low heat, scald the milk.
• While the milk is heating, pour the cream into a medium sized bowl and stir in the cornmeal, sugar, molasses, salt, and spices.
• Add the cornmeal mixture to the scalded milk and cook, whisking constantly over medium-low heat until the pudding has thickened to the consistency of syrup (about 5 minutes).
• Remove it from the heat.
• In a small bowl with a whisk, beat the eggs.
• Add 1/2 cup of the hot cornmeal mixture to the eggs while whisking rapidly.
• Then vigorously whisk the egg mixture back into the remaining cornmeal mixture.
• Add the butter and stir until it melts.
• Pour the pudding into the prepared baking dish, and place the dish in a shallow baking pan on the center oven rack.
• Pour enough hot water into the larger pan to come two-thirds of the way up the sides of the pudding baking dish.
• Bake the pudding until it is set and a tester inserted close to but not in the center comes out clean, about 1 1/4 hours.
• Remove the pudding from the water bath and cool slightly.
• Serve it warm with vanilla ice cream or heavy cream spooned over the top.

Steps:

• Bring water to boil in large saucepan. Stir in salt and grits, stirring until it comes to a boil. Turn heat to low, cook very gently for 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Be sure to stir across the bottom of the pot to keep from sticking.
• Remove from heat and allow to stand for about a half hour or until the grits are tender. Stir in milk and sugar.
• OPTIONAL: For a more deluxe version, use cream in place of milk and add spices to taste such as cinnamon,nutmeg, mace, cloves or ginger. You can also add in 1/2 cup of currants or raisins.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 8x8x2-inch glass baking dish. Blend all ingredients in processor until almost smooth. Pour batter into prepared dish. Bake pudding until brown and center is just set, about 45 minutes. Cool 10 minutes; serve.

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a large saucepan. Stir in the salt and the coarse grits, stirring until the contents of the pot return to a boil. Turn the heat to low, and cook very gently for 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Be sure to stir across the bottom of the pot to keep the grits from sticking.
• Remove from the heat and allow to stand about a half hour or until the grits are tender. Stir in the milk and sugar (and any desired optional spices).
• Variation-To make a more deluxe version, you can use cream in place of milk, add sweet spices to taste (like cinnamon, nutmeg, mace, cloves, or ginger) and 1/2 cup of currants or raisins.
