Corn Pudding with Chives

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a blender, puree half the corn with 2 cups milk until almost smooth. In a large bowl, whisk eggs with sugar, flour, nutmeg, and 2 teaspoons salt; whisk in pureed corn mixture, along with remaining corn and 1 cup milk.

Pour mixture into a 9-by-13-inch (or other shallow 4-quart) baking dish; sprinkle with chives. Bake until golden brown around edges and very loosely set, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
