Clafouti, a classic French dessert, is essentially an egg and cream custard poured over chopped “stone” fruit like apples, pears, peaches, cherries (or any other fruit with pits). One night, the corn was so tender and so very sweet that I thought it could have been dessert. That is when I thought of recreating Clafouti into a corn and Gruyère savory dish. It kind of tastes like a cross between a popover and quiche. Baked in individual ramekins and gently removed and placed on each plate, it makes dinner a special treat with almost no effort. I get it all ready to bake in advance and chill it until 50 minutes before dinner when I pop it in the oven. -

On lazy nights, we heat up left overs and serve it topped with poached eggs. On the weekends, we use it for special breakfasts in our Nestled Baked Eggs Florentine. We add it into omelets and even scrambled eggs. It's one of the best most versatile leftovers ever.

The Union Square Cafe Cookbook
Served with grilled lamb chops and sautéed insalata tricolore at the Union Square Cafe, this magnificent potato gratin is rich, velvety-smooth and absolutely delicious. If you haven’t experienced Union Square Cafe, you must do so. Until then, their irresistible cookbook reveals the secrets behind the restaurant’s marvelous trademark dishes from appetizers to desserts. Its imaginative, yet relatively easy recipes burst with the flavor of fresh, seasonal vegetables and herbs. We suggest creating this gratin with homegrown Yellow Finn or Red Ruby Potatoes.

Read more- My father’s love of sweet American corn was legendary. He could eat six ears of corn at a sitting. This was quite something since he scoffed at corn-eating Americans when he first arrived here from Holland after the war. In those days, the only corn in Holland was feed corn for pigs and cattle. Years ago, my father fell in love with a fabulous corn pudding made by my mother who was given the now-lost recipe by a UConn friend. I created ‘Dad’s Favorite Corn Pudding’ recipe~it comes pretty close to what he craved.
