• Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

FRESH CORN, CHEDDAR, AND SCALLION CORN BREAD

Steps:

• Grease a jelly-roll pan, 15 1/2 by 10 1/2 by 1 inch. Into a bowl sift together the cornmeal, the flour, the sugar, the baking powder, the baking soda, and the salt. In a small bowl beat together the eggs and the buttermilk. To the cornmeal mixture add the buttermilk mixture, the corn, the Cheddar, and the scallions, stir the batter until it is just combined, and pour it into the pan, spreading it evenly. Bake the corn bread in the middle of a preheated 425°F. oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean.

SCALLION-CHEDDAR CORNBREAD STUFFING

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees if you are planning to bake the stuffing right away (otherwise don't heat it yet). Butter a shallow 1 1/2-quart baking dish or an 8-inch pan (square or round will work).
• Thinly slice the scallions, separating the white and light green parts from the dark green parts. Save the dark green parts for later.
• In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt 3 tablespoons butter (save the remaining 2 tablespoons butter for the topping). When the white butter foam has mostly disappeared, add white and light-green scallion slices, celery and the pinch of salt. Cook vegetables, stirring them often, until tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the pepper. (If you're grinding it from a pepper mill, you don't have to measure it. Just turn the mill 10 times over the pan.) Move the skillet to an unlit burner on your stove and let the mixture cool.
• Crack the eggs into a large bowl and whisk them together until well mixed. Add cooled celery mixture, dark green scallion parts, cornbread, sage or rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon salt and cayenne, if using. Stir in the 1 1/2 cups stock, adding more as needed to moisten all the cornbread. You want it moist but not mushy. (Stop before it looks like oatmeal.) Fold in 1/2 cup Cheddar, the Parmesan and parsley.
• Spoon the stuffing into the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle the top with the remaining 1/2 cup Cheddar. Cut the butter into 1/2-inch cubes and scatter those over the top of the stuffing. (At this point, you can wrap the cornbread with plastic wrap and refrigerate it overnight.)
• When ready to bake, if you haven't heated the oven, do so now. Bake stuffing until crisp and browned on top, about 25 to 35 minutes. (It will take longer if you're baking it straight from the fridge.) Serve hot or warm.

WHITE CHEDDAR CORN BREAD WITH SCALLIONS

Steps:

• Place a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 400°.
• Butter an 8-inch square baking dish and set aside.
• In a food processor, combine the butter, cornmeal, flour, baking powder, egg, sugar, and salt.
• Process for 20-30 seconds until blended.
• Add the scallion and the cheese and pulse for a few seconds just to combine.
• Pour the milk through the feed tube and process until blended well.
• Lift the lid of the processor and scrape the sides and bottom with a spatula to check for lumps.
• If you find any, replace the lid and pulse for another few seconds.
• You can also use an electric mixer to combine all the ingredients.
• Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for about 25 minutes.
• Watch the cornbread closely, and don't wait until it's brown on top to remove it from the oven.
• Cut into squares and serve immediately.
