Hot Corn Dip With Cream Cheese
Hot Corn Dip - Our Best Bites. So last year around this time we got loads of emails requesting ideas for Superbowl parties. We have a pretty decent appetizer section, and you can see many of them pictured in this post. However, you might notice what Kate and I noticed. A great number of our appetizers are, well… pretty. Looks like we do way more baby showers, wedding celebrations and womens’ luncheons than we do jeans and t- shirt wearing beer/rootbeer guzzling sports gatherings. So this week we’re determined to bring you some good football- appropriate fare! And even if you’re not a football fan, think of an excuse to make this stuff because it’s good anytime food! Today’s recipe is a hot corn dip. I’ve had it bookmarked for a while now, mostly because I’ve seen so many great reviews for it and I was curious to see if it lived up to the hype. I’ll be honest, it took a lot for me to not give in to my instincts and add more stuff to it like lime juice, cumin, fresh cilantro, etc. I followed the recipe with some very minor changes and what do you know…Emeril actually knew what he was doing. This was a big hit, we gobbled it right up! Perfect for a casual gathering like a game day party or a summer bbq. Let’s get cookin’! Easy High Protein Lunch Ideas. I can’t wait to make this in the summer time with fresh corn from the cob. Since that’s not available to me right now, I used frozen corn. (Please oh please don’t use canned corn.) You pop it in a hot skillet with a little butter and salt and pepper to roast it up.
See this beautiful pan I’m using? The folks at All- Clad sent Kate and me each a pan from the brand new Stainless collection with D5 Technology. Yes, it’s beautiful. You can read all about it here. The collection is sold exclusively at Williams- Sonoma and it’s considered one of the best brands of cookware on the market (which is why you’ll notice it’s a little pricey!) The pan I’m using in this picture is the 6 quart saute pan and I’ve been using it a lot, it’s a great size to have. The new D5 technology is pretty amazing and the cookware performs beautifully. Check out those links, even if it’s just to drool! Okay, back to the recipe…You’ll remove the corn from the pan and pop it in a bowl. Then add a little more butter. Next, you’ll add in some diced onions and the red pepper. I used a jarred roasted red pepper (or check out this tutorial to make your own) and I loved the smokiness they added to the dip. Saute those for a few minutes. And then add in green onions, garlic, and jalapenos. By the way, check out this post if you’re scared of jalapenos! Remove the onion mixture and pop it in the bowl with the corn and stir it all up. Add in the cheeses, mayo, and cayenne pepper. The recipe says to put half the cheese in and use the other half on top, but I’d say I added more like 2/3 of the cheese in the dip and 1/3 on top. Add enough mayo for it to all come together. 1/2 C was perfect for me.
Stir it all up to combine and then pop it in a dish. Something about 8×8 or similar will be perfect, I used a pretty pie plate. Top with additional shredded cheese and pop it in your preheated oven. When it comes out all hot and bubbly you’ll want to dig right in. I was amazed at how sweet the dip was because of the corn. It’s a nice mix with the spice of the red pepper and jalapeno, however it wasn’t *spicy* at all. I did cut the red pepper down by half because I’m a scaredy- cat but next time I’ll put the full amount in. The cheese and little bit of mayo make it super creamy. Serve with either tortilla chips, or my guilty little secret, Fritos. Seriously folks, this stuff is Yu. Mm. Y! Print This! Hot Corn Dip. Recipe by Emeril Lagasse. I used roasted red bell peppers from a jar.
C was plenty for mine. I used monterey jack. Tortilla chips, for dipping. Preheat the oven to 3. F. Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large heavy skillet over medium- high heat. Add the corn, salt, and black pepper.
Cook, stirring occasionally, until the kernels turn deep golden brown, about 5 minutes. Note that if you’re using frozen corn it probably won’t get golden brown. Just cook for about 5 minutes as the recipe states. Transfer to a bowl. Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in the skillet. Add the onions and bell peppers and cook, stirring often, until the onions are wilted, about 2 minutes. Add the green onions, jalapeno, and garlic and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.
Transfer to the bowl with the corn. Add 1/2 C mayo, cayenne pepper, half of the Monterrey jack and half of the cheddar and mix well. If you need more mayo to hold the mixture together then add it, but I found that 1/2 C was plenty, and I even added a little extra cheese.
Pour into an 8- inch square baking dish, or something equivalent and sprinkle the remaining cheese on top. Bake until bubbly and golden brown, 1. Serve hot with tortilla chips or Fritos.
