SWEET CORN SPOONBREAD WITH SMOTHERED SHRIMP, POACHED EGGS, AND FRIED GREEN TOMATOES

Steps:

• For the Fried Green Tomatoes: Soak tomatoes in milk. Mix cornmeal and flour. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. In a large saute pan over medium-high heat add butter. Dredge tomatoes in a cornmeal until completely covered. Carefully place tomatoes in a saute pan and fry for 2 minutes on each side. Drain on a paper towel; season with fresh cracked pepper.
• For the Sweet Corn Spoonbread: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Bring to a boil one-cup of milk; add corn and cornmeal, stirring constantly, and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from the fire and beat in butter, sugar, salt, and the remaining milk. The cold milk should cool the mixture. Beat egg yolks. In a separate bowl, beat whites until stiff, then fold the stiffly beaten whites into egg yolks. Add to cooled milk mixture. Pour the mixture into a buttered dish and bake for 30 minutes.
• For the Smothered Shrimp: In a medium saute pan over high heat add butter and saute the shrimp. When the shrimp are slightly pink, add the onions and garlic and saute until translucent. Dust with flour and stir well incorporated to a paste. Add chicken stock 1 cup at a time working, with a wooden spoon. When gravy is formed, season with salt and pepper, and finish with chopped parsley.
• For the Poached Eggs: Bring water to a boil; add vinegar and salt. Crack 2 eggs and poach for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove with slotted spoon.
• To Assemble: In a soup bowl, scoop a small amount of spoonbread into the center. Top with poached eggs and garnish with shrimp and chopped parsley.

SWEET CORN POACHED IN SUMMER TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• I shucked the corn and removed all the "silk," rinsed the ears, and dropped four of them in the pot. I covered the saucepan so it quickly returned to a gentle boil, and cooked the ears for about 8 minutes, until the kernels were tender.
• Dripping with sauce, the corn looked beautiful and tasted great-and no one needed butter. In addition, the sauce in the pot gained extra sweetness.
• Try this whenever you make this summer tomato sauce. It's easy to cook a half-dozen ears of corn when the large batch of tomatoes is cooking for the first time. Or you can reheat a quart or more of finished sauce and poach a couple of ears in it at a time.
