Tips:

For the best flavor, use fresh corn kernels. If you don't have fresh corn, you can use frozen or canned corn, but the flavor will not be as good.
Be sure to drain the corn well before adding it to the batter. This will help prevent the pudding from being too watery.
If you want a sweeter pudding, you can add a little sugar or honey to the batter. You can also add other ingredients to the batter, such as chopped peppers, onions, or cheese.
Corn pudding can be baked in a variety of dishes. You can use a 9x13 inch baking dish, a casserole dish, or even a muffin tin. Just be sure to adjust the baking time accordingly.
Corn pudding can be served as a side dish or a main course. It can also be served for breakfast or brunch.
