Creamed Corn Casserole

Indigenous to the Americas, corn was one of the earliest cultivated crops on the continent. With a sweet flavor and a wide range of culinary applications, corn continues to be a popular ingredient throughout the United States. This corn casserole is made in the Midwest and South, a warm and hearty side dish that is often served at Thanksgiving tables. The recipe uses canned corn and canned cream-style corn, canning being a preservation technique that allows fresh corn flavor to be enjoyed during long winter seasons. Creamed corn casserole is very frequently made with Jiffy cornbread mix, which has been one of the Michigan company's most popular products since the 1930s. This recipe is from scratch, but it can be simplified with a box mix without sacrificing authenticity.
