Notes
Serving
Serve your Corn Soufflé hot, straight from the oven. It makes a wonderful side dish for holiday gatherings, Sunday brunches, or as a comforting addition to any meal.
Variations
Feel free to customize your Corn Soufflé by adding shredded cheese (Cheddar, Swiss, or Gruyère) for a cheesy twist. You can also incorporate chopped fresh herbs like chives or parsley for added flavor and freshness.
Storage
Corn Soufflé is best enjoyed fresh from the oven when it’s at its fluffiest. However, if you have leftovers, you can refrigerate them in an airtight container for up to 2-3 days. Reheat individual servings in the microwave for a quick and tasty snack.
