SMOKY POBLANO CORN PUDDING

Smoky Poblano Corn Pudding image

In our family, a warm bowl of corn is always on our Thanksgiving table. My mom dumps a few bags of frozen corn into boiling water while the turkey rests and the potatoes get mashed. She'll then inevitably forget about the now water-logged corn until we are sitting at the table ready to eat. And still a Thanksgiving table without corn is not complete in my mind. This dish transforms frozen corn into a decadent and richly flavored dish with just a bit more work than setting a pot of water to boil.

Time 1h45m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

3 poblano peppers
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 yellow onion, diced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper, plus more for seasoning
2 cups whole milk
3 eggs
3 tablespoons sour cream
1 cup grated sharp white Cheddar
4 ears corn, shucked and kernels removed, about 4 to 5 cups
4 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves
4 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 cups panko bread crumbs

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Put the poblano peppers over the flame of 1 of the burners on the stove to roast. Cook, turning often with tongs until all of the skin is blistered, about 15 minutes. Add the peppers to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap to steam for about 15 more minutes. When the peppers are cool enough to handle, transfer to a cutting board, peel the skin off, remove the seeds and stems, dice, and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a medium saute pan over medium heat, add the onions and the salt and pepper. Cook until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes, and then set aside to cool.
Heat the milk in a small saucepan just until it starts to simmer, about 3 minutes.
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and then slowly add the scalded milk. Whisk in the sour cream and then fold in the cheese, corn, peppers, onions, herbs, cayenne. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Add the mixture to a 9 by 13-inch buttered baking dish and set aside.
Put the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saute pan over medium heat and add the panko. Toss to coat the bread crumbs and season with salt and pepper. Pour the bread crumbs over the pudding and bake in the preheated oven until the bread crumbs are golden, the pudding is set and bubbling around the edges and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve.

Tips:

For a smoky flavor, roast the poblano peppers over an open flame or under a broiler until charred. Then, place them in a paper bag or bowl covered with plastic wrap for 15 minutes to steam. Once cool enough to handle, remove the charred skin and seeds.
To make the corn pudding more creamy, use heavy cream or half-and-half instead of milk.
Add a cup of shredded cheese, such as cheddar, Monterey Jack, or queso fresco, to the corn pudding for extra flavor and texture.
For a vegetarian version of the corn pudding, omit the bacon and add a cup of chopped roasted red peppers or sun-dried tomatoes.
Serve the corn pudding hot, warm, or at room temperature. It can also be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven or microwave.

Conclusion:

Poblano corn pudding is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's a great way to use up leftover corn on the cob and poblano peppers, and it's also a perfect dish for a potluck or picnic.
