Corn-No-Dog-Kitty Custard

1/8 pound chopped onions

1/4 pound corn off the cob

1 stick butter

2 quarts heavy cream

8 egg yolks

Salt and white pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Saute onions in butter over medium heat for 5 minutes. Add corn and saute for another 4 minutes. Whisk in the cream and cook for 30 minutes over low heat, stirring frequently. Place in blender or food processor and blend to a puree. Add one yolk slowly, to temper. Add remaining yolks and process, just to combine. Bake in a large pan, placed in a water bath for about 40 minutes, until the custard is set.
