Recipe Introduction
I saw this at eGullet. Poster Ann T. made it and posted it on her blog: http://www.thibeaultstable.com/. This is very much like what we call Corn Pudding – a little drier and less sweet. It is almost like a corn soufflé. And absolutely delicious – I will be making this again. NOTE: I added a little hot sauce.

List of Ingredients
2 cups scraped corn (or canned or frozen)
4 eggs
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Dash nutmeg
2 tablespoons melted butter/margarine
Recipe
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Spray a 1 1/2 quart baking dish with cooking spray. Combine all of the ingredients and spoon into dish. (This can also be made in individual ramekins).
Place in a roasting pan; pour boiling water two-thirds up side of the baking dish. Bake one hour or until the top is golden and a knife tests clean. Serve immediately.
For a smoother more uniform texture, puree corn and add two tablespoons
of flour and proceed as above.
Serves 6 – 8.
