Family Recipe Friday - Jenny's Indian Corn Pudding

Getting things ready for Thanksgiving? Here’s one of my favorite recipes for Thanksgiving Day, corn pudding!

It’s not a recipe handed down in my family, but it has come to me through family. Well, kind of. Sort of. Well, indirectly. Well…….

My dear brother-in-law [my sister’s hubby] and his brother and sister-in-law and my sister get together a lot. And the couple has often joined our family on holidays at the farm the four of them own. Well, Jenny is always asked to make this delicious dish. And this is the recipe she shared with me. Now… whether she is there or not… I always have Indian Corn Pudding in my Thanksgiving Dinner menu. Of course, if Jenny is joining us… I beg, [even been known to plead and wail!] for her to make the dish. It’s always best when she makes it!
