Name: Corn and Coconut Pudding
Cook time: 25 min
Total time: 1 hr
Yield: Makes 6 (dessert) servings
Ingredients: 3 1/4 cups corn (from 4 ears; reserve cobs); 1 cup well-stirred unsweetened coconut milk; 1 cup whole milk; 1/2 cup sugar; 1 tablespoon cornstarch; 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract; 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon plus additional for sprinkling

Majarete

A typical Dominican meal usually ends with nothing more than a cup of coffee and a simple dessert. That ethos is perfectly captured in this traditional pudding, with an unexpected—and delicious—interplay between the sweet corn and the tropical coconut.

Cooks' note

Pudding can be chilled, covered after 1 hour, up to 3 days. It will continue to set as it chills.

This is the type of soup that, at first glance, might seem a little…unexciting. But you’re underestimating the power of mushrooms, which do the heavy lifting.

Béchamel Sauce

This classic 15-minute sauce is your secret weapon for homemade mac and cheese, chowder, lasagna, and more.

Smothered Italian Sausage

This is what I call a fridge-eater recipe. The key here is getting a nice sear on the sausage and cooking the tomato down until it coats the sausage and vegetables well.

Crème Anglaise

The silky French vanilla sauce that goes with everything.
