Creamed Corn With Bacon And Blue Cheese Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Greekgirrrl / All my dishes 1 year, 5 months ago Use your favorite type of blue cheese. I like gorgonzola. Taste before adding salt because you may not need it if the bacon and the cheese are very salty. Prep:20m Cook:10m Servings:6	Greekgirrrl

Ingredients

5 medium ears fresh corn with husks and silk removed

4 oz (about 4 slices) of bacon cut into 1/2 inch pieces

1 medium shallot, minced

1 medium garlic clove, minced

1 1/2 c heavy cream

1/2 tsp minced fresh thyme leaves

Pinch cayenne pepper

2 oz blue cheese crumbled (about 1/2 cup)

salt and ground black pepper

Directions

Cut the kernels from 3 ears of corn and transfer them into a medium bowl.

Firmly scrape the cobs with the BACK of a butter knife to collect the pulp and milk in the same bowl.

Grate the remaining 2 ears of corn on the coarse side of a box grater set in the bowl with cut kernels.

Firmly scrape these cobs with the back of a butter knife to collect the pulp and milk in the same bowl.

Cook the bacon in a large non-stick skillet over med-high heat until crisp and browned, about 5 minutes.

Transfer onto a paper towel lined plate to drain.

Remove and discard all but 2 tbs of the bacon drippings from the pan.

Add the shallot and cook until softened but not browned, 1-2 minutes.

Add the garlic and cook until aromatic, about 30 seconds.

Stir in the corn kernels and pulp, the cream, thyme and cayenne.

Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook, adjusting the heat as necessary and stirring occasionally, until the corn is tender and the mixture has thickened, 10-15 minutes.

Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the cheese.

Adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper and serve immediately.
