Best Corn And Tomato Spoonbread Recipes

SPOONBREAD WITH GREEN TOMATO AND CORN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cook the bacon in a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat. When cooked, add the tomato and stir for two minutes. Add the corn and cook for another two minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Dab a paper towel with one tablespoon of butter and rub it evenly over the sides and bottom of a two-quart casserole. Set the casserole aside.
• In a three-quart saucepan, bring two cups of milk to a boil over medium heat. Once it begins to boil, begin sprinkling the cornmeal slowly over the liquid, stirring constantly. This will prevent the cornmeal from lumping. Stir the mixture over the heat until it becomes very thick, about three to four minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Add the remaining butter, stirring until it is completely incorporated. Stir in the remaining milk. Blend in the egg yolks. Add the bacon-corn mixture, salt and pepper to taste and blend.
• Whip the egg whites until they form a soft peak. Fold them into the spoon bread mixture. Scoop the mixture into the buttered casserole and place it in the oven and bake for 40 minutes.
• Serve with a spoon and more butter if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Generously butter four 6-ounce ramekins and dust with cornmeal; tap out the excess.
• Whisk the milk, corn, cornmeal and a pinch of salt in a large microwave-safe bowl and microwave 5 minutes. Stir and continue to microwave until thick, about 2 more minutes. Meanwhile, beat the eggs in a bowl with a mixer until thick and airy, about 5 minutes.
• Whisk 1/2 cup cheese and 1 tablespoon chives into the hot cornmeal mixture until thick. Whisk half of the cornmeal mixture into the eggs, then whisk in the remaining cornmeal mixture until smooth. Divide the batter among the prepared ramekins and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup cheese. Transfer the ramekins to a baking sheet and bake until puffed and set, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, chop the tomatoes and toss with the olive oil, the remaining 1 tablespoon chives, and salt and pepper. Top the spoonbread with the tomato mixture. Serve with pickled vegetables.
