Corn pudding has sometimes been prepared using "green corn", which refers to immature ears of corn that have not fully dried.[2][4] Green corn is not necessarily green in color.[2] The cooking of the corn pulp when preparing the dish can serve to thicken it.[5]
Corn pudding is sometimes served as a Thanksgiving dish.[6]
Corn pudding may be sweet or savory.
