It also looks, and tastes like you have to be a good cook to make, which happily you don�t. If you have a decent blender, or food processor, there isn�t much that can go wrong.
If you are sans mechanical pureeing device, you can still make this by using the corn kernels whole. In fact, many corn pudding makers will leave some portion whole for texture, but as I said in the video, I like the smooth version best.
The pan under the baking dish is optional, and if you�re in a hurry, you can skip it, which will cut about 15 to 30 minutes off your cooking time; but I like that it slows the cooking, which I think improves the texture. You can do the same thing with a water bath, but that�s slightly more work, and this really isn�t that temperamental of a recipe.
Speaking of cooking time, I used an 8� x 11� baking dish, which is kind of an odd size, so if you use the more common 9� x 12� casserole, you�ll have to test for doneness, as the batter will probably cook faster. Either way, if you�re looking for a special holiday side dish, or just something delicious to throw next to sausage on a Tuesday night, I really hope you give this a try soon. Enjoy!
