Étapes

Prepare the corn
If using fresh corn, stand each cob upright in a bowl and cut off the kernels with a sharp knife. If using frozen sweetcorn, thaw it in a bowl or under cool water, then drain well.
- 4 cobs (or 450 g frozen sweetcorn) corn
✅ C'est prêt quand : kernels are off the cobs, or frozen corn is thawed and drained

Blend and strain
Blend the prepared corn with the milk until very smooth. Strain through a fine sieve into a pot, pressing hard to get all the liquid out, then discard the pulp.
- all (from step 1) prepared corn
- 500 ml whole milk
✅ C'est prêt quand : liquid is smooth with no pulp left in the sieve
Add the coconut and sugar

The Story Behind the Dish
Majarete is a traditional Dominican dessert of the countryside, made when fresh corn is in season. Its roots go back to Spanish and African puddings made with grain and milk, adapted to native corn.
It's a favourite at the feasts of San Juan and other summer celebrations, and is also loved in Puerto Rico and Cuba in slightly different versions.
⭐ Why It's Famous
Smooth, creamy and fragrant with cinnamon, it captures the sweet taste of fresh corn.
💡 Fun Fact
In Puerto Rico, majarete is usually made with rice flour instead of corn; in the Dominican Republic, fresh corn is the star.
