Would you believe I made this up? No?… O.K. ..It’s not my recipe! I got this from Mr. Gulliver, himself… Actually friends, this is the recipe published in the “Los Angeles Times Cookbook”. Yes, it’s Gulliver’s Creamed Corn. A few of you never thought you’d have to think about this again, did you? Ha…Ha…Gotch’ya!
- 8 ears corn
- 1 cup whipping cream
- 2 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. sugar
- 1/2 tsp. MSG (optional)
- Butter or margarine
- 2 tsp. flour
- Freshly grated parm cheese
Cut corn from cob and place in saucepan with whipping cream. Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes. Stir in salt, sugar, and MSG. Melt 2 tsp. butter in small pan and stir in flour. Do not brown. Stir butter-flour roux into corn and cook until slightly thickened. Turn corn into ovenproof dish, sprinkle with cheese, and dot with butter.
Brown under broiler.
Makes 8-10 servings
