SAVORY CORNBREAD WITH CHEDDAR & THYME

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Spray a 9-inch square glass or metal baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, sugar and thyme until well combined. Stir in the corn and cheese.
• In a small bowl, break up the eggs with a wire whisk, then add the milk and whisk to combine. Add the wet mixture and melted butter to the dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until just combined. Do not overmix. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth the surface with the back of a spoon or spatula. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until puffed and lightly golden. Cool slightly in the pan on a wire rack, then cut into pieces and serve warm. Cornbread tastes best when served right out of the oven but leftovers can be wrapped in foil and reheated in a 350-degree oven for 10-15 minutes.
• Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The cornbread can be frozen in an airtight container or sealable plastic bag for up to 3 months. To reheat, just wrap in foil and warm it in a 350°F oven until hot.

CP'S CHEESY CREAMED CORN

Steps:

• Invert a small bowl in a very large bowl. Hold the corn so it's standing up on top of the inverted bowl with the thick base at the bottom. Carefully shave off all the kernels from the corn cobs with a knife. Add the corn to a medium saucepan, then take a tablespoon and scrape the cobs where the kernels once were. What you will get is a sweet/milky/starchy slurry that will help thicken your corn. Add the half-and-half and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat for 3 to 5 minutes. Once the mixture has thickened, add the pecorino and stir to combine, allowing it to melt and incorporate.

Add the remaining prosciutto to a deep-fryer, or small saute pan with hot olive oil and fry until crispy, about 1 minute. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate before stirring into the creamed corn. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt before serving.
