FAQs

Which is better, corn pudding or corn casserole? ›

Corn casserole and corn pudding are essentially the same thing. However, as the name suggests, corn pudding has a slightly looser texture than corn casserole. Corn casserole is like a moist and creamy version of cornbread, but it's still sturdy enough to hold its shape.

The keyword there is was, as Stouffer's broke the news to fans on Twitter that the homestyle side dish is no more. The company still sells its Spinach Soufflé, but it doesn't hit the same as the elevated cornbread original.

Corn casserole is a dish that mixes cornbread with whole kernel corn, sour cream, butter, and cheese, along with some creamed corn to form a new dish that has cornbread as its base. This is a Southern favorite that makes an excellent side dish, particularly during the holidays.

What is the difference between Yankee cornbread and Southern cornbread? ›

The thing that distinguishes Southern cornbread from, say Yankee cornbread, or any other cornbread one is likely to eat outside of the southern states, is that it is savory, not sweet, and it is made mostly with cornmeal.

One key reason cornbread has always been a Southern staple is the predominance of corn among Southern crops. Wheat and rye didn't store well in the heat and humidity of the South. Although the South is known for its biscuits, they were a rarity in earlier centuries. Instead, cornbread was the daily bread of the South.

You can tell your corn casserole is done when it's lightly brown on top and the center is set and doesn't jiggle.

These can be made in advance and stored in the fridge up to a day in advance or in the freezer for a week or two. To thaw, simply remove and allow the souffle to come to room temperature and then continue to bake as per the recipe.
