Beware!! The half-and-half has been left out of the cooking directions. The first time I made this corn pudding for Thanksgiving, I discovered this omission the very hard way, after it was already in the oven! I alerted The Times many years ago, but still this error has not been corrected. It's a family favorite and has become a Thanksgiving tradition BUT you have remember to add the half-and-half.

I discovered the first time I made this that the recipe neglected to say when to add the half and half. Unfortunately, I didn't realize til it was already in the oven...I quickly pulled it out, etc. I am surprised that this error has not been corrected. I always add it with the cheese and corn.
