These corn fritters look great although they're considerably more complicated than the ones Bridget made a few years back. I think she served hers with maple syrup eta Found the old, easier recipe CORN FRITTERS Yield: 12 fritters 1 1/2 lbs. fresh corn, husks and silks removed (3 to 4 medium-large ears) 1 egg, beaten lightly 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 3 tablespoons cornmeal 2 tablespoons heavy cream 1 small shallot, minced 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 pinch cayenne pepper vegetable oil as needed

Re chopping the onion: the reason for making the horizontal cut(s) first is because if you make the vertical cuts first, the onion will "open up" as you make the horizontal cuts, as seen in your video. If you make the horizontal cuts first the whole onion will stay together, and when you make the vertical cuts the downward pressure against the cutting board holds the pieces in place.

I used to have to swallow vinegar ( used balsamic myself) to assuage the cramps in my ankles and lower legs that unknowingly I was getting from my blood pressure medicine. My dentist told me she had cramps from the same BP meds and switched to one that was the same family and cheap and sure enough, when I talked to my doctor and got the new prescription, it worked for me too. I am glad I haven't had to drink vinegar straight since then. I felt your pain there.

I have silicone drink coaster I put on the bottom of a finger bowl to protect the knife (I am a knife sharpener) and do it over a large bendable plastic cutting board inside a 1/2 sheet pan after grilling the sweet corn outside. Then fold the cutting board to put corn in freezer bags on a bag holder so we have grilled corn all winter. We like it in our chili and soups. We get our sweet corn 1 mile down the road after they post it was just cut.

Will give the mayonnaise sauce a miss btw, that looks way too heavy. Am a fan of yoghurt. Some Greek yoghurt, with some seeded mustard and a tiny bit of balsamic vinegar, some spring onion or chives will be my "sauce" 😊

I just tried the corn fritters - and what a good idea that was! The Maple-Chipotle Mayonnaise picked up some needed life with a squirt of lime juice, but the fritters were brilliant exactly as given. (Well, ok, I added a little minced jalapeno, but I do that to many things I probably shouldn't.) About half way through cooking the second batch of fritters, pieces of corn started to explode every now and then. Could someone tell me it that means I had the pan too hot, or something?
