8 ounces ham per person A delicious treatment for brine-cured ham. To use country ham, reduce its saltiness as suggested in Country Ham Steak with Red-Eye Gravy. Adjust an oven rack so it is 3 inches below the heating element and preheat the broiler.

2½ cups fresh corn kernels (about 5 ears)
2 large egg yolks, well beaten
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
2 large egg whites
1 tablespoon butter or vegetable oil

Sub-recipe steps

Scrape from the cobs into a bowl: 2½ cups fresh corn kernels (about 5 ears)
Stir in: 2 large egg yolks, well beaten; 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour; ½ teaspoon salt; ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Whip in a medium bowl until stiff but not dry: 2 large egg whites
Fold into the corn mixture. Heat in a large nonstick skillet over high heat: 1 tablespoon butter or vegetable oil
Drop in the batter a heaping tablespoon at a time, without crowding. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, turning once, until browned on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Wipe out the skillet between batches and add more butter or oil. Serve immediately with any of the following: Maple syrup or honey, lemon wedges, any salsa, Shirazi or Israeli Salad, Chow Chow, or Smoky Tomato Jam
