Whenever the whole big extended family gets together in Mt. Holly at the West’s house, someone always requests this for at least one of the meals! Jon and Macina especially like this recipe!
Although Noreen makes a good version of corn pudding that she adapted from her mother-in-law’s recipe, I had the opportunity years ago to try a different version served at a small family restaurant on Tangier Island. I asked the cook if she would share her recipe with me, and this recipe is what she told me. I’ve been making corn pudding this way ever since.
