Torta de Jojoto (corn) is a classic Venezuelan dish. I love it and best of all, it’s very easy to make. The special touch comes from the cheese; it adds a unique and delicious flavor. It’s best to use corn while it’s in season, otherwise you can use canned corn. Enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 3 cups of corn kernels, well drained
  • 1/2 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose or whole wheat flour
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 4 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 1/3 cup hard cheese, grated

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease and 8x8-inch mold. Set aside.
  • 2
    Mix the flour, salt and baking soda in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • 3
