Welcome Friends, welcome back to the kitchen and The Old Cookbook Show! Today, we’re diving into a 1942 classic from Duncan Hines' "Adventures in Good Cooking"—a collection of recipes from some of the best restaurants he visited while traveling across the U.S. and Canada in the 1930s and '40s.

We're making Corn Pudding, a simple and comforting savory custard that works as a perfect side dish. This recipe is quick to prepare, uses just a few pantry staples, and can be easily customized—think paprika, jalapeños, or even cheese for an extra layer of flavor! But will it win over someone who doesn’t like creamed corn? Watch and find out!

Deep South "Cawn Puddin"
(Serves 6)
INGREDIENTS:
1 #2 can cream style corn
¾ quart whole milk
6 eggs
2 tablespoons sugar
pinch salt
2 tablespoons corn starch


DIRECTIONS
Mix all ingredients, beating eggs before add-ing. Mix corn starch with enough cold water to make smooth paste before adding corn. Pour into greased casserole.
Bake in 300º for 30 minutes or until the consistency of custard.
Old Southern Tea Room, Vicksburg, Mississippi

In the video I cut the recipe in half - we didn’t need that much corn pudding.
