I stood in line for 35 minutes in the heat of Atwoods parking lot and got me some fresh corn from this wonderful Amish family who sells it each year. I froze most of it but today I made my family a corn souffle. I thought maybe some of you would like the recipe.
Corn Souffle
2 Tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese
1 10 oz. pkg. frozen corn, thawed or 10 oz. fresh cut from the cobb
1 c. milk
1/2 c. cornmeal
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
2 Tbsp. butter
4 egg yolks
4 egg whites, stiffly beaten
thyme
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 1-quart souffle dish; coat bottom and sides with 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese. Place 1/2 of corn, milk, cornmeal, salt, nutmeg and cayenne in blender. Blend to make a smooth puree. In medium saucepan, melt butter; add corn puree and remaining corn. Cook over medium heat about 5 minutes or until thickened. Stir small amount of corn mixture into egg yolks; return to corn mixture, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Fold in egg whites. Pour mixture into prepared souffle dish. Sprinkle mixture with remaining Parmesan and thyme. Bake at 350 degrees for about 35 minutes. Serve immediately. Serves 4.
