Ingredients

• 6 earss white corn
• 1 cup water
• 3 cups milk
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 pinch salt
• 3 tablespoons cornstarch

Instructions

1. 1 Fill a large bowl with ice and cold water. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add corn and cook uncovered until kernels are slightly softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain in a colander and immediately immerse in ice water for several minutes to stop the cooking process. Drain.
2. 2 Remove kernels from the cob using a knife and transfer to a blender. Add 1 cup water, or 1/2 cup if blending in two batches, and blend until puréed. Strain the mixture into a bowl using a fine-mesh strainer; discard the solids. Run liquid once more through a clean strainer.
3. 3 Stir in milk; transfer mixture to a medium nonstick skillet. Cook over medium heat until milk is heated through. Stir in sugar, vanilla extract, and salt; bring to a gentle simmer.
4. 4 Reduce heat to low and combine 1/4 cup of the hot liquid with cornstarch. Pour mixture into the skillet and stir constantly until atole begins to thicken to desired consistency, about 5 minutes. Immediately remove from heat. Pour into pudding bowls, soup bowls, or cups.
