Corn Recipes

This page includes several corn recipes that I think you will enjoy. Corn is my favorite vegetable and we love to grow corn in the garden as well.

Corn Recipe #5
Cornbread

When I 16, my family moved from upstate New York to El Paso, Texas. Prior to this, I had never had corn bread. It seems that everyone in Texas loves cornbread. So here is a good recipe, better than any cornbread recipe.

You will need:

  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/3 cup butter, melted
  • 1 large farm fresh egg
  • 1 cup milk

Preheat your oven to 400°.

Grease a cast iron skillet. Set aside.

In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Stir with a whisk.

Add the melted butter, egg, and milk. Important: do not over mix. Stir until combined. There should be lumps. Do not smooth the batter out. Pour the batter into the greased cast iron skillet. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This is best served hot with butter. In Texas, we serve it with a pot of beans, either savory or sweet with pork in it that we cooked in the crock pot all day long.


Corn Recipe #6
Mexican Corn Bread

This recipe has chili peppers, green onions, cheese, and creamed corn for a bit more flavor and texture than plain cornbread.

You will need:

  • 1 cup self-rising cornmeal
  •  ½ cup self-rising flour
  •  3 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  •  2 green onions (aka bunching onions), sliced
  •  ½ cup chopped green bell pepper (or red bell pepper, for color)
  •  6 ounce can green chili peppers
  •  2 eggs beaten
  •  8 ounce can cream-style corn
  •  ¼ cup milk

Preheat your oven to 350°. Grease a 9 by 9 inch glass baking pan.

In a large mixing bowl, add the cornmeal, flour, cheese, green onions, green bell pepper, and canned green chili peppers. Mix until well blended.

Add in the eggs, creamed corn, and milk and stir until well blended. Spread the batter out into the prepared pan.

Bake for about an hour, until a toothpick placed in the middle of the bread comes out clean.


Corn Recipe #7
Great Grandma Soules' Corn Relish

I remember visiting Great Grandma and Great Grandpa Soules, my maternal grandmother, Millie Pitcher's mother, when I was a little girl. Great Grandpa would sit in his front room with a tall spitoon, telling stories and chewing tobacco. Every once in a while, he would spit it out into the spitoon. I was horrified and mesmerized by it all and I loved hearing his stories.

Meanwhile, Great Grandma would be in the kitchen making treats. We never left without several jars of homemade jelly and jam, sealed with wax at the top of the jar instead of a lid.

Here is one of her corn recipes, corn relish. Enjoy!

You will need:

  • 10 ears of corn, shucked, silks removed, cooked and cut off husks
  • 3 hot red peppers, finely chopped
  • 1 quart of cabbage, finely chopped
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2 and 1/2 teaspoons ground mustard seeds
  • 1 quart vinegar
  • salt to taste

Combine the sugar, mustard, vinegar and salt in a large pot. Bring to a boil. Add the chopped cabbage, chopped peppers, and cooked and cut off corn kernels. Once it starts boiling again, boil for ten minutes on medium heat.

Put the mixture into sterilized canning jars. Can and seal while the mixture is still hot.
