  6. 1 (8 ounce) carton sour cream

  11. 3 eggs, separated
  12. 1 teaspoon baking powder
  13. 1 (15.25 ounce) can Del Monte® Whole Kernel Corn, drained

Instructions

  2. Combine water and cornmeal in a medium saucepan. Bring to boiling over medium-high heat; reduce heat. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute or until very thick. Remove from heat. Transfer cornmeal mixture to a large bowl. Stir in cheese, sour cream, 1/4 cup melted butter, the salt and black pepper.
  3. Whisk milk, egg yolks and baking powder in a medium bowl until combined. Stir into cornmeal mixture. Stir in canned seasoned corn and the reserved poblano chile pepper.
  4. Beat egg whites with a whisk or electric mixer in a medium bowl until stiff peaks form. Fold beaten egg whites into cornmeal mixture. Pour into a greased 3-quart rectangular baking dish or 3-quart round casserole dish. Bake for 35 minutes for rectangular dish or 50 minutes for round dish or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Let stand for 15 minutes before serving (bread will sink during standing).

As another commenter said, I cooked this for about 45 min in the rectangle pan. Top was brown and the bottom like a soufflé. I won’t be making this again
