Steps:

  • Remove green husks and silk from corn, being careful to keep husks whole. Discard silk. Place husks in large pot of boiling water and blanch 1 minute. Remove from water; drain.
  • Cut kernels off cobs. Place half of the kernels and onions in blender container; cover. Blend on medium speed until smooth. Pour into large bowl. Place remaining corn kernels, butter, baking powder, eggs and cornmeal in blender container; cover. Blend until smooth. Add to corn puree in bowl. Stir in cheese. (Batter will be thick but not stiff.)
  • Place 2 of the corn husks on work surface, with long sides slightly overlapping. Spoon 1/4 cup of the corn puree onto bottom half of the husks; fold the top of the husks over the filling. Fold in half from the left side, then fold in half again from the right side. (One end of each humita should remain open.) Repeat with 34 of the remaining corn husks and remaining corn puree. Keep folded ends in place by tieing closed with thin strips of the remaining corn husks.
  • Fill a large pot with 2 cups water. Line steamer basket with half of the leftover corn husks; place in pot. Stand the humitas, open ends up, in the basket; cover with the remaining corn husks. Cover the pot with a lid. Bring water to boil on high heat. Reduce heat to low; steam 30 minutes or until humitas are firm.

Steps:

  • Quítale las hojas verdes y el pelo al elote, teniendo cuidado de que las hojas queden enteras. Desecha el pelo. Escalda las hojas en una olla grande con agua hirviendo durante 1 minuto. Sácalas del agua y escúrrelas.
  • Corta los granos de maíz al elote. Coloca la mitad de los granos y las cebollas en la licuadora; tápala. Mézclalos a velocidad media hasta obtener una consistencia homogénea. Vierte la mezcla en un recipiente grande. Coloca el resto de los granos, la mantequilla, el polvo para hornear, los huevos y la harina de maíz en la licuadora; tápala. Mezcla hasta que la consistencia sea homogénea. Agrégaselos al puré de maíz que quedó en el recipiente. Incorpora el queso. (La masa quedará espesa pero no se endurecerá.)
  • Coloca 2 de las hojas de maíz sobre la superficie de trabajo de modo que queden un poco superpuestas a lo largo. Con una cuchara, coloca 1/4 taza del puré de maíz sobre la mitad inferior de las hojas; dobla la parte superior sobre el relleno. Dóblalas por la mitad de izquierda a derecha y, luego, de derecha a izquierda. (Debe quedar abierto uno de los extremos de cada humita.) Repite estos pasos con 34 de las hojas de maíz restantes y el resto del puré de maíz. Amárralas con tiritas delgadas hechas con las hojas de maíz restantes de modo que no se abran los lados que doblaste.
  • Llena una olla grande con 2 tazas de agua. Forra el cesto de cocción al vapor con la mitad de las hojas de maíz restantes; coloca el cesto en la olla. Coloca las humitas verticalmente dentro del cesto con sus extremos abiertos hacia arriba; cúbrelas con el resto de las hojas. Ponle la tapa a la olla. Haz que hierva el agua a fuego alto. Reduce el fuego a bajo; déjalas cocer al vapor por 30 minutos o hasta que estén firmes.
