CORN PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Brush the bottom and sides of an 8-by-8-inch casserole dish with 1 tablespoon of the melted butter.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/2 cup melted butter with the polenta, mascarpone, milk, creamed corn, whole corn, and egg. Season with salt and pepper. Pour into the prepared casserole dish and smooth the top. Bake until set, about 1 hour.

ALMOST-FAMOUS CORN SALSA

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Brush the poblano with 1 teaspoon olive oil and grill, skin-side down, until charred but still firm, about 5 minutes. Cool slightly; peel and finely chop.
• If using fresh corn, bring a small pot of salted water to a boil. Add the corn and cook until tender, 2 to 3 minutes; drain.
• Mix the corn (if using frozen, add it here), poblano, jalapeno, cilantro and red onion in a bowl. Stir in the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil, the lime juice, sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
