The sugar in corn begins to turn to starch as soon as it is picked. So, to get the maximum flavor for your corn pudding, use very fresh corn, preferably picked the same day, or a high-quality frozen product. Serve alongside any kind of grilled meat, especially lamb, or with a simple salad for lunch.

Cooks' Note

Suggested Beverage: A well-chilled Chenin Blanc or an un-oaked Chardonnay.
