Mastering Chodang Corn Rice: Effortless Oven Cooking for Delicious Results
Experience the delightful sweetness and rich aroma of Chodang corn, perfectly cooked in your oven for a wholesome and flavorful rice dish. This recipe makes it simple to create a special meal, even without a rice cooker.
Ingredients- 1 Chodang corn (select a large, plump cob)
- Rice for 2 servings (approx. 1.5 cups)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Begin by preparing the star ingredient: the Chodang corn. Husk the corn, then carefully use a knife to cut the kernels off the cob. It’s also a good idea to remove the corn silk for a cleaner texture.
Step 2
Select an oven-safe dish for cooking. Rinse and soak your rice (for 2 servings) for about 15-20 minutes. Place the soaked rice into the oven-safe dish. Add the freshly cut Chodang corn kernels and the corn cob itself to the dish. When adding water, use slightly less than you normally would for stovetop rice (about 10% less). This helps to balance the moisture from the corn and achieve perfectly cooked grains.
Step 3
Place the prepared corn and rice mixture into a preheated oven set to 130°C (266°F). Cook for approximately 30 minutes. Cooking times may vary slightly depending on your oven’s performance. Check for doneness – the rice should be fluffy and tender, infused with the sweet flavor of the corn. Enjoy your delicious, homemade Chodang corn rice!
