Servings 8 Servings
Ingredients
- 3 cups corn
- 1 large poblano pepper
- 1/4 cup salted butter
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 cup half-and-half
- 1/4 cup milk whole or 2%
Equipment
- grill
Directions
- Grill the corn and pepper over medium heat. Brown both, but do not fully cook or char them. This will give them both a mild smoky flavor.
- Mince the poblano pepper and cut the corn off the cob. Place in a pot with the butter. Cook for 2 minutes over medium heat.
- Add the flour and continue to cook for another 4 minutes. Make sure the flour is mixed in thoroughly.
- Sprinkle in the salt, pepper, and sugar; mix. Slowly pour in the half-and-half and milk while mixing. Stop every ¼ cup to fully blend the liquid in.
- Turn the heat to medium-low and continue cooking for 20 minutes. It’s ready! If you find at this point that the liquid is too thin, add a mixture of 1 tablespoon water and 1 tablespoon flour (pre-mixed) into the pot. Once added, cook for an additional 7 minutes until thick.
