CORN PUDDING (My Favorite)
For 4 people use 8 large ears or 12 small ones. Corn needs to be as FRESH as
possible. Cut corn CREAM-STYLE getting ALL THE JUICES *** You will be amazed at
the result and the taste after cooking! Butter a souffle dish and Fill 3/4 full
to allow for expansion. Now, stir in one tablespoon full of butter for each ear
used. Add crystal salt. Set oven at 325 degrees and do not preheat. Insert dish
into oven immediately with no cover. Bake slowly for 25 minutes. Then stir
thoroughly. Then go for ANOTHER 25 minutes. Brown the top using broiler about 3
inches above your dish.
Serve and you won't believe the taste
