Corn Custard Mexicana Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Butter six 6-ounce glass or ceramic ramekins. Set ramekins into a 2-inch deep baking dish.
• Place corn into a large saucepan and stir in cream, salt, and cayenne pepper. Bring to a simmer and remove from heat; stir in milk.
• Transfer corn mixture to a blender and pulse several times to get the mixture moving. Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy.
• Whisk egg yolks with eggs until smooth in a mixing bowl. Slowly whisk about 1/4 cup hot corn mixture into eggs until the corn mixture is incorporated. Repeat several times more until all the corn mixture is combined with eggs.
• Divide corn mixture equally into the 6 ramekins. Pour hot tap water into the baking dish to come about halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
• Bake in the preheated oven until custards are just set, 30 to 35 minutes. Let custards cool for about 10 minutes before serving in ramekins or unmolding onto serving plates. To unmold, insert a knife between the custard and the ramekin, go around the edge with knife to loosen, and turn over onto a plate to unmold.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a 9-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with a disk of parchment paper.
• Place chocolate in a double boiler over simmering water and stir until melted. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
• Whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, chili powder, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Stir in the eggs and buttermilk and then stir in the melted chocolate. Scrape batter into the prepared pan and bake for 18 to 20 minutes. Cool in the pan on a rack.
• Once the bread is cool, break into 1-inch chunks and spread in the bottom of a 2-quart baking dish.
• Whisk together the sugar and yolks in a large bowl until pale. Whisk in the melted chocolate, milk, cream, and vanilla extract until combined.
• Using a fine sieve, strain the custard over the bread chunks. Press on the bread chunks so that they are soaked in the custard mixture. Place the pan in a roasting pan and fill the roasting pan halfway with hot water. Bake for 40 minutes or until the custard is set. Remove and let cool on a rack for 30 minutes before serving. This is best served warm. Spoon into bowls and drizzle with the Hot Mexican Chocolate Sauce.
• Bring heavy cream and cinnamon sticks to a simmer in a small saucepan. Remove from the heat and let steep for 15 minutes. Remove the cinnamon sticks, add the chocolate and sugar, and cook over low heat until the chocolate is completely melted. Stir in the almonds and transfer to a small pitcher. Keep hot.;

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Butter an 8-inch square baking dish, and place it in the hot oven while you prepare the batter.
• Sift or stir together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder and baking soda.
• In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and the melted butter until well-blended. Add the sugar, salt, milk and vinegar and beat well. Stir the dry ingredients into the egg mixture just until the batter is smooth.
• Pour the batter into the heated dish. Pour the heavy cream into the center of the batter. Do not stir. Check the cornbread after 45 minutes. It is done when the top becomes lightly browned.
• Serve warm.

Steps:

• Position racks in the middle and upper third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-inch pie plate with the dough, crimping the edge with your fingers. Poke the bottom of the crust all over with a fork. Line with foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake on the middle rack until golden around the edge, about 20 minutes. Remove the foil and weights; continue baking until golden all over, about 10 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, core the tomatoes and cut into 1/2-inch wedges; toss with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Spread the tomatoes in a single layer on paper towels to drain until ready to use.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the corn and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer 1/2 cup of the corn to a large bowl.
• Add the heavy cream to the saucepan with the remaining corn and bring to a simmer. Carefully transfer the mixture to a blender and puree until smooth; transfer to the bowl with the corn. Whisk in the eggs, half each of the scallions and cheese, and a few grinds of black pepper; pour into the crust. Bake on the middle rack until the custard is just set, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and increase the temperature to 400 degrees F.
• Mix the remaining scallions and cheese, the panko, thyme, paprika, cayenne and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and black pepper in a bowl. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of the mixture on top of the pie. Pat the tomato wedges with paper towels to absorb the excess moisture, then coat with the remaining panko mixture and arrange on top of the tart. Sprinkle any remaining panko on top; dot with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Return to the oven on the upper rack and bake until the top is golden, about 15 minutes. Let cool 30 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Mix all of the ingredients together except for the margarine. Place in small casserole; dot with margarine and bake at 375 degrees for about 30-40 minutes until bubbly around the edges and no longer wiggles in the middle!
• P.S. I initially substituted the sour cream with 2 of those "topping" packets you get with Hamburger Helper Enchilada dinners (which is part of our snack night served with tortilla chips and Mex. condiments. (We don't like it as a topping), but it worked fine in this recipe.
