Williams Sonoma Corn Pudding Recipes

WILLIAMS-SONOMA CORN PUDDING

Steps:

• Note: In order to bake the pudding you will need a 1-1/2 quart souffle dish and a baking pan large enough for the dish to set in, because you will be putting water in the pan.
• Preheat the oven to 350°. Butter the souffle dish and set aside.
• In a large bowl beat the eggs until light and frothy. Stir in the corn, green onion and bell pepper.
• In a large bowl stir together the flour, salt, paprika and cayenne. Add to the corn mixture, stirring to blend. Stir in the melted butter and the half-and-half and mix well.
• Pour mixture into the prepared souffle dish and place in the pan. Pour hot water into the pan to reach about 1/4 of the way up the sides of the souffle dish.
• Place in the oven and bake until the top is golden and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean (about 40 minutes). Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

WILLIAMS-SONOMA CORN CHOWDER

Steps:

• In a sauté pan over medium heat, cook the bacon, stirring occasionally, until browned and crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a slow cooker.
• Pour off all but 1 Tbs. of the drippings from the pan. Add the onion to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Add the onion, milk, potatoes, corn and reserved corncobs to the slow cooker. Cover and cook on high for 4 hours according to the manufacturer's instructions.
• Remove the corncobs and discard. Using a stick blender, puree the chowder directly in the slow cooker to the desired consistency.
• (Alternatively, in a blender or food processor, puree the soup in batches until smooth.).
• Stir in the chives. Season with salt and cayenne pepper. Serve immediately. Serves 6 to 8.
