They are usually cooked in large cauldrons* over wood fires, in batches of twenty-five. About fifty large ears of corn yield twenty to twenty-five buns.
INGREDIENTS
8 cups fresh corn (from about 8 large ears)
Optional: 1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
Fresh or dried corn husks for cooking
Butter and white farmer's cheese* for serving
1. Pass the raw corn kernels through the finest disc of a grinder* or meat grinder into a bowl. Or process the corn into a smooth paste. You will get about 2 cups of a smooth paste.
2. Add the sugar and salt, and mix well with a fork or wooden spoon.
3. Cut 8 x 6-inch strips of aluminum foil or place corn husks in the palm of your hand. Place one-quarter of the corn mixture (1/2 cup) on each strip. Wrap like you would an envelope, folding over the top and bottom; use more than one husk if necessary. Roll into logs and cover completely with foil. Carefully seal the foil before rolling the buns to prevent water from seeping into the buns or the cornmeal mixture from getting into the cooking water.
4. Place the buns upright in the bottom of a 2-quart pot. Tie all the buns together to keep them upright. They should be tightly tied. Pour in enough boiling water to completely cover all the buns and simmer, covered, for 45 minutes to an hour. They should feel firm or hard to the touch.
5. Let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. Remove the foil and serve with butter and white cheese on the side. Delicious Food is a Successful Diet with Chef Pachi
