CORN FRITTERS WITH MAPLE SYRUP

Steps:

BASIC CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• Using a chef's knife, cut the kernels from the corn into a medium bowl; you should have about 3 cups. Using the dull side of the knife, scrape the milk and pulp from the cobs into the bowl. Add egg yolk, flour, sugar, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
• In a clean bowl, whisk egg whites until stiff but not dry. Fold into corn mixture. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Drop spoonfuls of batter into the oil, spaced a few inches apart. Cook until golden on the bottom, 1 to 2 minutes. Using a spatula, turn fritter over, and cook until golden on the other side, 1 to 2 minutes more. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, using the remaining oil for pan. Serve immediately.

BERNICE HERB'S CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• In a heavy skillet cook bacon over moderately low heat until crisp. Transfer bacon to paper towels to drain and reserve bacon fat in a heatproof bowl. Crumble bacon.

• In skillet heat 1 tablespoon reserved bacon fat over moderate heat. Working in 2 batches, form fritters by dropping 1/8-cup measures of batter for each into skillet and cook until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes on each side. Serve fritters warm with bacon and syrup or tomatoes.

SUGAR-DUSTED CORN FRITTERS

• Add the melted butter or margarine (or oil) and beat or stir briskly by hand until well blended.
• Stir or fold in the corn until evenly distributed.
• Drop by tablespoons into hot deep fat (375 degrees) and cook until golden brown.
• Drain on paper towels.
• Place on plates and dust with confectioner's sugar if desired. These are best if served with maple syrup.
• Notes: I usually try one first.
• If I find the oil is bubbling through the fritter, which would make it too greasy, I'll add a little more flour to the batter to prevent that.
• Also, as a shortcut, instead of deep frying, I usually pour 2 or 3 inches of oil into a large saucepan or electric frying pan and fry that way.
• When one side is brown, I just turn and brown the other side.
