Best 7 Sour Cream Corn Recipes

CORN WITH SOUR CREAM AND BACON

Steps:

• Cook onion in butter until soft; blend in flour and salt.

BUTTERMILK AND SOUR CREAM CORN BREAD

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Butter a 9 by 9 by 2-inch metal baking pan.
• Blend the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a processor for 5 seconds. Add the butter cubes. Blend until the butter is reduced to tiny pieces, 15 to 20 seconds. Whisk the buttermilk, sour cream and eggs in a large bowl to blend. Add the dry ingredients from the processor and stir until evenly moistened. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake the corn bread until the top is golden brown and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Cool the bread on a rack at least 30 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

CORN MUFFINS WITH GREEN ONIONS AND SOUR CREAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Line twelve 1/3-cup muffin cups with paper liners. Combine first 7 ingredients in large bowl. Whisk sour cream, eggs and melted butter in another bowl. Add sour cream mixture to dry ingedients and stir just until moistened (do not overmix). Fold in corn kernels and green onions.
• Divide batter equally among muffin cups. Bake until golden and tester inserted into center of muffins comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Cool on rack. (Can be prepared 8 hours ahead. Cover and let stand at room temperature.)

FRESH CORN MADELEINES WITH SOUR CREAM AND CAVIAR

Steps:

• Make madeleines:
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Brush molds with some melted butter.
• Whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Whisk together egg, buttermilk, 1 tablespoon melted butter, and corn in another bowl, then add to dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
• Spoon 1 teaspoon batter into each mold and bake in middle of oven until madeleines are golden around edges and spring back when pressed lightly, 5 to 6 minutes. Turn madeleines out onto a rack to cool and make more in same manner.
• Top madeleines:
• Put sour cream in pastry bag (if using) and pipe (or spoon) about 1/2 teaspoon onto each madeleine, then top with a rounded 1/4 teaspoon caviar.

BAKED CORN (LIKE A CORN CASSEROLE, BUT NO CHEESE OR SOUR CREAM)

Steps:

• Beat the eggs, add corn, sugar, salt, milk and 1/2 of your crushed club crackers.
• Dump into a greased or sprayed small baking dish. I use the 9x9 glass ones.
• Cover with the remaining half of cracker crumbs and dot with butter.
• Cover with foil and bake at 350°F for 1 hour.

SOUR CREAM CORN

• Cut kernels from corn to measure 2 cups.
• Fry bacon; drain and crumble.
• Set aside.
• Saute onion in butter; blend in flour, salt and pepper.
• Gradually add sour cream, stirring until mixture is smooth.
• Heat just to boiling; add corn, and heat thoroughly (about 5 minutes).
• Fold in half of bacon.
• Spoon into a greased 1 quart casserole; top with parsley and remaining bacon.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes.

MEXICAN STREET-CORN PALETA (CORN, SOUR CREAM AND LIME POPSICLE)

Steps:

• Place the milk, 2 1/2 cups corn kernels, cobs, serrano chile, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and sugar in a stockpot. (If your corn is very sweet, reduce the sugar slightly.) Place over medium heat, stirring the bottom with a spatula. Bring to a simmer, and reduce the heat to maintain it; do not boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the corn is mostly tender, about 15 minutes from when it comes to a simmer.
• Let cool for 10 minutes, and remove the corn cobs and serrano chile and reserve. Working in batches if necessary, blend the milk mixture in a blender until smooth. Blend in sour cream, lime zest, lime juice and more salt or sugar to taste. Transfer milk mixture to a bowl, add the corn cobs (and serrano, if you like) and chill at least four hours, preferably overnight.
• Heat butter in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat until foamy. Add the remaining corn and a few pinches of salt. Sauté until the corn is nicely browned, 3 to 5 minutes. If the bottom of the pan is browning, stir in some water until it fully evaporates. Transfer to a bowl, chill and reserve.
• Remove the cobs and serrano again and discard. Divide the sautéed corn among your Popsicle molds (about 1 tablespoon each if using 3-ounce molds). Divide the milk mixture into the molds. Give each a gentle stir to distribute the corn. Freeze for 50 minutes, or until just hard enough to stand the Popsicle sticks up, insert sticks and freeze until firm, at least 4 hours more. To unmold, dip the molds for a moment in hot water, and remove the paletas. Sprinkle with chile powder, if desired.
