How do you make Sweet Corn Tomalito?

Question

I tried it before and it was GREAT. i would like to know the recipe for it. thnx everybody.

Answer 1

6 cups fresh corn kernels
3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
1/2 cup prepared masa for tamales
2/3 cup sugar
3/4 cup cornmeal
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup milk




Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Blend 3 cups of corn kernels and the milk in a blender or food processor until smooth. Whip the butter, masa, and sugar together in the food processor until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

Add all ingredients, including the puréed corn and the remaining 3 cups whole corn kernels, and mix well. Pour the mixture into a 9 x 13-inch pan. Cover tightly with aluminum foil. Set the pan in a large roasting pan. Pour enough cool water into the roasting pan to reach 3/4 inch up the outside of the 9 x 13-inch pan.

Bake for 1-1/2 to 2 hours, or until the corn mixture registers 175 degrees on an instant-read thermometer and the corn mixture is set. Scoop out portions of the pudding and serve hot.




If fresh masa is not available, use masa harina and adjust the ratio of dry masa to milk (liquid) as directed on the package.

Answer 2

I have seen several recipes for this wonderful concoction most take up to an hour to prep and cook.

I use this method:

1 1/2 cup boiling water
1 cup corn meal
cook stirring constantly until thickened
add 1 can sweetened condensed milk
add 1 can creamed corn
cook and stir until thickened to desired point

Total time: 12 to 15 minutes
