Spoonbread is a moist, souffle-like side dish from the South. Vivian 
Howard, of Chef & the Farmer in North Carolina, shared this wonderful 
recipe with us. A little sweet, a little spicy, and a lot delicious, 
it's best served right out of the oven at its maximum puffiness.

Note 1: at room temp, cut in pats, (57g)

PREP: 1 hr 40 mins
BAKE: 35 to 40 mins
TOTAL: 2 hrs 20 mins

Bake the sweet potato on a baking sheet in a preheated 375F oven for 
1 hour, until easily pierced with a knife. Remove from the oven, 
cool, and peel. Purée in a food processor; you should end up with 
roughly 1 1/2 cups.

Generously butter a 2-quart baking dish with straight sides. Place a 
rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375F.

In a medium saucepan, heat the milk, sugar, salt, and cayenne until 
bubbles form around the edges. Whisk in the cornmeal and cook for 
about 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and 
a thin film coats the bottom of the pan. Remove the thickened mixture 
from the heat, and stir in the butter a tablespoon at a time.

In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and heavy cream until 
the yolks are fully incorporated and the cream is a uniform pale yellow.

In the bowl of your mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip the 
egg whites until they form soft peaks.

Once the cornmeal mixture has cooled for at least 5 minutes, whisk 
1/3 of it into the egg yolks and cream. Follow up with the remaining 
cornmeal mixture to create a pour-able batter. Using a spatula, stir 
in the grated cheese, sweet potato purée, and poblano peppers. 
Finally, fold in half of the whipped egg whites. Continue with the 
remaining whites.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for 35 to 40 minutes.

Store any leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
