Author Notes

Corn pudding is the dish you can really sink your teeth into. The pudding bakes into this fluffy custard-like texture with bursts of corn kernels. It's a textural sensation! This recipe builds on that tradition with some clever enhancements that take the dish to the next level. The first flavor addition is honey, which adds a subtle sweetness that perfectly complements the natural sweetness of the corn. The honey also adds a luscious, tongue-coating flavor, making each bite feel luxurious. But this recipe isn't just about sweetness.

To balance out the flavor profile and add some depth, we're also using miso, a deeply savory and salty ingredient that adds umami richness to the dish. The salty miso not only complements the sweetness of the corn and honey but also gives the pudding a more complex flavor that keeps you coming back for more.

I was very skeptical of this recipe but it turned out fantastic. I put the miso in the butter and smooshed it up as the butter was melting. In a 9x13 pan, this took about 30-35 minutes to cook in my oven. I'm glad I checked it or it would have severely burned at the suggested cook time. I served it with brandy butter, but it would also be delicious with chili on top.
