Blend the drained corn with half of the milk until completely smooth.

- 3
Return the strained liquid to the blender, add the remaining milk, sugar, salt, and cornstarch, and blend briefly to combine.
- 4
Pour into a heavy-bottomed saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring continuously for about 25 minutes until the mixture thickens to a pudding-like consistency.

Pour immediately into a greased bundt or pudding mold and let cool at room temperature before refrigerating for at least 2 hours.

Unmold onto a serving plate, dust generously with cinnamon, and serve chilled.
💡 Chef's Tip
Never stop stirring while cooking — constant movement prevents lumps and sticking. For extra depth of flavor, stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract before pouring into the mold.
