Gal brought this to our monthy potluck luncheon, and lots requested this recipe. She sent it to me to email out to all that wanted it.

PSST, I went back for seconds.

So while I have it C&P thought I would share with you gals.

Corn Casserole

1 - 14 1/4 oz whole kernel corn, drained

1 - 14 3/4 oz cream corn

1/2 cup melted butter

1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded

1. preheat oven to 350* F

2. in a large bowl, stir together the first 5 ingredients

Looks like a great recipe Glenda. I've got one too, that we make in my family, and I hope you don't mind me adding it to your thread. That way the delicious corn recipes are all in the same place :-)

1 can cream style corn
1 cup dry macarooni
1 cup shredded cheddar chese
1/2 stick of melted margerine

It wasn't in the original recipe, but I also add about a teaspoon of minced dried onion.

Stir them all together (can be done the day ahead of time but doesn't have to). Pour in greased oven dish (metal or glass). Preheat oven to 350. Bake approximately 1 hour (less if it was stirred together and stored in the refrigerator the night before) or until macarooni is cooked.

This recipe is easy to double, triple, or even quadroople(sp?)! I've even made 5 x the recipe for a large gathering. Everyone absolutely loves it.

crabjoe, welcome aboard, glad your garden is doing well. Now's the time to begin thinking about next year's garden. Set up a compost station and make yourself some nice soil amendment. Also this fall gather all the fallen leaves you can and bury them about a foot deep right in the garden. Use alot, around a foot thick. It'll look rather mounded if you use enough but by spring it'll be compressed and black and rich. Next spring turn in some composted, not fresh, cow manure and mix it with that layer of leaves that will have worked down. Add some blood meal, bone meal and greensand if you can get them (follow directions) and you'll have the richest soil in the neighborhood. If you've got compost going then use it as a mulch around the plants after they come up. Don't mix sawdust, wood chips, unfinished compost, etc. in the spring - it eats up too much nitrogen at that time. Believe me, if you feed the soil you've fed your plants. Oh, it's a good idea to have your soil tested if only to determine Ph. It's great to have it at 6.5 but not absolutely necessary. Best Regards.

Why is my heirloom corn so starchy

"Because of that crappy thing - cross pollination - the minority has to eat what the majority likes!" Not so much due to cross-pollination, as to changing tastes, and the diminishing number of varieties grown commercially. Nearly all of the ubiquitous bi-color sweet corn sold commercially is now GM... a choice made by farmers, not consumers. Basically, the only choice left to the consumer is to take it or leave it (I choose the latter). As with several other vegetables, the evolution of sweet corn has tended to focus on the "sweet" aspect. That is not all bad, since - intentionally or not - the evolution of tenderness has gone hand in hand with that. I've grown & enjoyed several of the older Su sweet corns, but have to admit that I prefer some of the Se hybrids now. IMO they tend to be the best compromise between the older corn flavor, and the super sweets. The fact that many of those have better disease resistance, and better husk cover, is an added bonus. The vendor I've used for years dropped my favorite variety last year (Miracle), I hope I can find an alternate source, and that it has not been discontinued.

Trim if needed, but don't cut these back hard. They usually are fine with just a cleaning, rake through the foliage. I'd divide the larger clumps in late spring, maybe even early summer when they are really actively growing. I shouldn't have confused it by saying 'dormant' is ok. They aren't going to go true dormant for you - they are evergreen, but won't be actively growing in your cold winter - as evergreen as copper sedges can be :). If you had a really cold winter, it's possible you may have lost some of the grasses. Or if they were cut back hard when divided, they may not have liked it.

Sol, I need to research the raw milk thing some more. It's funny how things come full circle. When I was growing up, we had alot of family friends in the church I grew up in, that were "health food" NUTS..lol..When I babysat for them, I used to think they were weird..LOL unpasturized milk, grains, grains and more grains, lentils, carob, honey, homemade yogurt..there wasn't a single processed item in their house..not fun for a teenager! LOL One family actually grew mushrooms under the kitchen sink, and had a goat in the yard for milk and weed control.. Now as a parent..I realize the importance of these gifts from nature. And of course now, they are a bit more costly and require a bit more work then back then. But I'm determined to give my boys/family much more healthful options. It's amazing how much different an organic banana or carrot tastes..They taste like they should...fresh and true. ~I used to have instant acid reflux when eating a banana, or anything baked with bananas...now I can happily eat bananas daily...as long as they are organic.. I've turned your beloved cookies into health food. LOL I use only organic white flour and replace some of the flour with ground almonds. Of course there is the problem of 2 cups of brown sugar..but that's the LOVE..the caramelly sweet goodness.. tee hee...

Oh thanks!!! those both look great! I have a potluck on Monday!
I do fresh ears of corn in microwave. Wrap in wax paper.
I usually do 4 ears for the 2 of us. My microwave has the rotating function so I set them end-to-end in a circle.
About 5 mins.. Use a mitt to fish out of oven! VERY HOT!
Sure saves on the heat & humidity of boiling water since it's just the 2 of us!

Extended family have that corn recipe (minus the cheese) for almost every holiday. We let the young kids make it now; it's their favorite part of the dinner!

Highly recommend it!

I make that recipe, too... doubled, and without the cheese. Made it for my daddy before he died and he loved it!

Your recipe, I am sure is wonderful but I would rather starve than eat anything with creamed corn in it.
My favorite corn recipe is cooking freshly (within the hour) picked corn, putting it in cold water with a T. of sugar added brought to a boil and then removed immediately.
Slather with real butter and add salt and pepper to taste.
This will not work for anything but just picked corn.

Glenda... you forgot the bacon!!

Buttermilk Double Corn Bread with Bacon
Active Time: 30 Minutes
Total Time: 13 Hours 30 Minutes
Yield: 12 Servings
"The subtle touch of honey and brown sugar, with the double hit of corn and the combined textures of corn bread and kernels is really pleasing in the mouth. The recipe comes together easily once you've accounted for the overnight mixture. A surefire hit!"

RECIPE INGREDIENTS
2 cups buttermilk
1 1/4 cups cornmeal
10 slices bacon, cut in 1/2-inch pieces
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
3 eggs
2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp butter, melted
2 1/2 cups corn kernels (fresh or frozen--don't need to thaw)

DIRECTIONS: Stir buttermilk and cornmeal in medium bowl. Cover loosely and let stand at room temperature overnight.

Preheat oven to 350. Cook bacon until crisp, spoon 2 tbsp drippings into a 9'x13' metal or ceramic baking dish, tilting to cover bottom. Place in oven for 6 minutes.

Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda into large bowl; stir in brown sugar thoroughly. Whisk eggs, honey and melted butter in another large bowl; stir in cornmeal/buttermilk mixture. Add to dry mixture. Stir just until blended, then stir in corn kernels. Transfer to pan. Sprinkle with cooked bacon, pressing bacon to submerge into corn bread.

Bake until tester inserted in center comes out clean, and top is golden; about 45 minutes. Transfer pan to rack and let cool 15 minutes.

Serve warm or at room temperature. Excellent plain or with a little butter.

----------------------------
Now this one could also use a little bacon if you like. You could substitute canned or frozen corn if out of season or for convenience.
