👨‍🍳 作り方

1
Prepare the corn: Stand each ear of corn upright on a cutting board and carefully cut the kernels off the cob. You can do this by hand or use a sharp knife to slice downwards. Aim to get as much corn off the cob as possible, but avoid scraping too hard to prevent getting the tough inner core.
⏱️ 15 minutes
2
Sauté the aromatics: Heat the butter or oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat (approx. 175°C / 350°F). Add the finely chopped onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Do not let it brown.
⏱️ 7 minutes
3
Add tomatoes and spices: Stir in the chopped tomatoes and cook for another 5 minutes, until they begin to break down. Add the paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
⏱️ 6 minutes
4
Combine with corn: Add the fresh corn kernels to the skillet with the onion and tomato mixture. Stir well to combine. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, for about 10-15 minutes, or until the corn is tender and the mixture has thickened slightly. The corn should release its natural sweetness and become fragrant.
⏱️ 15 minutes
5
Assemble the humitas: Lay a soaked corn husk flat. Place about 1/4 to 1/3 cup of the corn mixture in the center of the husk. Fold the sides of the husk over the filling, then fold the bottom up and the top down to create a neat package. Repeat with the remaining corn mixture and husks. You may need to tie them with kitchen twine or use a second husk to secure if they don't stay closed.
⏱️ 15 minutes
6
Steam or boil the humitas: Prepare a large pot with a steamer basket or ensure you have enough water to cover the humitas if boiling. Bring the water to a rolling boil (100°C / 212°F). Carefully place the wrapped humitas into the pot, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Cover and steam or boil for 30-40 minutes, or until the husks are vibrant green and the filling is firm to the touch.
⏱️ 40 minutes
7
Serve: Carefully remove the humitas from the pot. Let them rest for a few minutes before unwrapping. Serve hot, either on their own or as a side dish.
⏱️ 5 minutes

このレシピを独自にアレンジするためのヒント

Humita en olla (in a pot): Instead of wrapping, the corn mixture can be cooked directly in a pot, often with added milk or cheese, creating a creamy casserole-like dish.
Spicy Humita: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or finely chopped chili to the corn mixture for a spicy kick.
Sweet Humita: For a sweeter version, add a tablespoon of sugar to the corn mixture.
