Maja Blanca Maiz (Corn Maja)

Ingredients:
- 3 cups fresh young corn
- 1 cup sugar
- 4 cups rich coconut milk
- 1 cup galapong or rice flour
- 5 tbsp fresh coconut oil

Procedure:
- Scrape corn from the cobs and strain through coarse muslin.
- Add the sugar, galapong or rice flour and coconut milk and cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly and adding fresh coconut oil little by little to avoid sticking. When thick, pour into coconut oil greased platters. Serve with latik and toasted coconut with sugar.

To make latik: boil in a saucepan pure coconut milk until a point when the oil is extracted and the chese-like precipitate becomes delicate brown in color. This precipitate is the Latik. Drain off the oil from the latik and use it for greasing plates or molds.
