Corn Oysters

These corn fritters are fried.

Ingredients:

• 6 ears fresh corn
• 4 eggs, separated
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Preparation:

With a sharp knife, cut kernels from the cob: first, cut halfway through the middle to release the "milk" then cut the remainder closer to the cob.

Beat egg yolks until light; add corn kernels. Mix flour with dry ingredients and beat into corn mixture. Beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. Fold into the batter.

Heat about 3 inches of lard or vegetable oil in a deep skillet and drop the batter by spoonfuls into the hot fat. Turn over to brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels.
Makes about 30.
