This pasta casserole with a sweet-and-spicy corn sauce and lots of melty cheese on top was inspired by Korean corn cheese.
A few weeks back I was talking to my friend Jane, who lives in Northern California. I’ve always been jealous of her big backyard garden and long growing season. That day, she was canning tomatoes and peaches. The previous week, she had roasted peppers of all sorts. The next week, she was planning to make a variety of pickles. This process of preserving her garden’s bounty stretches over six weeks each year.

It was something I had wanted to try, but never had enough space. “I have,” she said, and told me about how wonderfully sweet it was — she would pick it as soon as it was ready and immediately throw the ears on a hot grill. “But I see no reason to can it myself. Canned and frozen corn from the store is just so reliably good.”.
It’s inspired in part by corn cheese, which is sometimes served at Korean restaurants as a side dish. If you’ve never had it, trust me when I say that the combination of sweet corn and salty, melty cheese is an ideal accompaniment to spicier, more pungent banchan and rich, grilled meats. I turned that combo into a cheesy corn baked pasta to make it a meal all on its own. I added a little jalapeño , scallion and a can of creamed corn for more flavor.
