Humitas

• 4 ears fresh corn
• 1 cup feta cheese
• 1/2 cup milk

• 1 teaspoon salt
• 8 whole corn husks

Method

1. 1

   Remove the kernels from the corn and place them in a blender or food processor.

2. 2

   Blend the corn until you obtain a creamy mixture, then add the milk, melted butter, and salt. Blend until well combined.

3. 3

   In a mixing bowl, combine the corn mixture with the crumbled feta cheese.

4. 4

   Lay out the soaked corn husks and place about 2 tablespoons of the corn mixture in the center of each husk.

5. 5

   Fold the sides of the husk over the filling, then fold the bottom up to enclose the mixture. Tie with kitchen twine if needed.

6. 6

   Steam the humitas in a large pot with a steamer basket for about 45-60 minutes, or until the filling is firm and cooked through.

7. 7

   Remove from the steamer and let them cool slightly before serving.

8. 8

   Serve warm, optionally with a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of additional cheese.
