over the years y'all i've made
0:03
and put up tons
0:06
of creamed corn i love silver queen
0:10
corn creamed it is so
0:14
heavenly and that's what we serve at our
0:16
restaurants
0:17
and people just love it
0:20
and it's worth it's worth the work
0:23
uh well i got a recipe from a friend or
0:26
a fan
0:27
whatever y'all want to be called uh
0:30
out there i like to refer to y'all as
0:32
friends
0:33
and this has been sent to me by joan
0:36
gibson
0:38
and she said her late mother grew up in
0:40
grafton west virginia and spent the rest
0:42
of her life
0:43
in morgantown west virginia
0:46
and the family had a farm and there was
0:48
three children and
0:50
so that was five of them and uh
0:53
joan says although i now own the home on
0:56
five acres
0:58
an old farm which my parents bought in
1:01
1937
1:03
10 years before i was born i do not
1:06
raise
1:06
corn we can get grape corn brought in
1:09
from
1:09
preston county next just right next door
1:13
in the late summer and she says this
1:16
recipe is best when the corn is
1:18
older uh she said mother had a
1:21
corn creaming gadget to open the uh
1:23
kernels
1:24
and then we would scrape them uh and we
1:28
always went over the cob with a back of
1:30
a knife to get
1:31
every bit out and she said i attached a
1:34
photo of the setup
1:35
so joan you're so thoughtful um i
1:40
too have a contraption
1:44
for cutting corn off now if you're doing
1:47
whole kernel
1:49
you'll want to just cut it
1:54
to the cob so you'll have nice whole
1:57
kernels but if you want cream corn like
2:01
we serve
2:01
at our restaurants uh you'll want to
2:05
cream it
2:07
and this is our little coin gadget
2:12
and you can set your blade
2:16
to where you would like it to be how uh
2:20
however thick or thin
2:23
you want your corn to be so teresa's
2:27
degraded the corn for this recipe
2:30
but i just want to show y'all very
2:32
quickly
2:33
how this operates this is a really good
2:36
arm workout
2:37
it is maybe i'll get rid of some of that
2:40
flab
2:41
underneath my arms theresa now we're
2:44
early in the season so our corn
2:46
is not old
2:50
come on i wonder what do you mean by old
2:53
corn
2:53
well she just said it's better in the
2:56
last season because
2:57
it's tougher oh and uh
3:01
because this has got so much juice in it
3:04
i've made corn a lot of different ways
3:06
souffle
3:08
fried uh but i have never made
3:13
let's see what she calls them
3:16
corn fritters and i've made corn
3:18
fritters but not like this before
3:22
so this is the way this works y'all and
3:24
it makes it
3:25
so much easier and if you feel like you
3:28
have not
3:28
gotten all the milk out of it just take
3:32
your the back of your knife
3:36
and go down your cob to get every bit
3:40
of that corn milk out of there
3:44
so that's how you do it
3:47
to get wonderful cream coloring
3:51
now it only takes about 15 more years
3:54
yeah oh gosh i remember during the
3:58
summer my grandma called and i would put
4:00
up corn and
4:02
oh my gosh it was it was it was the
4:04
hardest
4:05
of all of our vegetables
4:08
so joan said her mother cooked her corn
4:12
fritters
4:12
and a cast iron skillet so i'm going to
4:15
do the same thing if i can pick it up
4:18
and um i am going to start this
4:22
to eat i want to make sure it's nice and
4:25
hot
4:27
and um i know y'all might not can hear
4:31
me
4:33
with me talking into the refrigerator
4:36
but uh joan said her mother used bacon
4:40
grease
4:41
to fry hers in and i just so happens
4:46
that i got some bacon grease
4:50
so but i am gonna spray my pan
4:54
um so hopefully they won't stick
4:59
and i think i'm gonna use an olive oil
5:02
so
5:03
i'm gonna give that can a sprout using
5:06
olive oil
5:07
since i'm on fried bacon fat
5:12
so i'm going to show them the bacon you
5:15
know i just can't believe this
5:17
recipe jump i hope i can do it justice
5:22
because there's no flour in these corn
5:25
fritters
5:26
there is salt pepper
5:29
and eggs
5:32
and she said for every cup of cream corn
5:35
add an egg
5:37
unless it's new didn't she say something
5:39
about it if it wasn't
5:40
new you may have to add an extra because
5:44
at the beginning of the season it's so
5:46
juicy
5:47
and full of moisture so you can see just
5:52
how juicy that is
5:55
and you know what i think theresa
5:59
my eyes ain't that great but it's a
6:02
little bit more
6:05
than um three cups so i'm gonna go ahead
6:09
and add this
6:11
so we'll put four eggs how's that
6:15
that should work pretty good
6:21
this is so good so sweet and she said
6:25
her mother always
6:26
added a little bit of um
6:29
sugar but joan said with the different
6:31
varieties of corn this
6:33
these um these days
6:38
she doesn't add the sugar
6:41
just salt and a little pepper
6:45
and now
6:53
so i feel good about
6:56
adding you know that one more egg
7:02
i said i hope i do this justice joe
7:07
i guess if you didn't have enough egg in
7:09
it you could cook you know your first
7:11
round and then
7:12
yeah if you needed to add i don't know
7:15
we'll see
7:16
teresa you know some things work out
7:19
great
7:20
i love adventures we are having an
7:23
adventure in the kitchen
7:25
yes i mean this is straight a corn
7:30
fritter
7:33
corn oops get back in that bowl
7:39
and she said with the leftover corn
7:42
fritters
7:44
her mother used to uh
7:47
use the leftovers for a sandwich
7:50
she'd make her sandwich using the corn
7:52
fritters
7:54
i think we have an idea for lunch today
7:56
i know i know
7:58
gosh it sounds wonderful
8:01
pouring on some white bread no we're not
8:04
gonna use bread
8:05
we're gonna use the corn as a sandwich
8:07
maybe a tomato sandwich
8:09
how about that even better all right so
8:13
she said use
8:17
about a fourth of a cup
8:20
so you know what i'm gonna do
8:24
i'm going to use a fourth of a cup
8:26
measure
8:28
but the first thing i've got to do is
8:33
get some bacon fat in there
8:35
[Music]
8:39
i gave another look at this over by the
8:41
stove y'all
8:43
and it looks so so thin
8:46
so i've decided
8:50
that um i adding
8:53
two more eggs
9:05
it's super super thin
9:09
okay joan cross your fingers for me
9:17
sort of feel like you look like a
9:19
perfect i was just about to say a
9:20
version of a hoe cake
9:22
it looks like a hoe cake oh i bet you
9:25
could put
9:27
okra in here oh
9:30
all right now let's see i'm gonna have
9:32
to reach across you
9:34
and get my grandmama's handy dandy
9:38
flippers
9:42
all right she doesn't say whether to um
9:45
cook this in a real hot skillet she just
9:48
said
9:48
when one set side browns flip it over
9:52
and then eat
9:57
this is straight you know my mommy used
10:00
to fry corn
10:02
this is it it didn't resemble anything
10:05
like this
10:07
this is you said your your mother put um
10:11
flour no her mother oh yeah yeah i can
10:14
make corn fritters yeah
10:17
they would have some flour in them
10:21
but this is pure unadulterated
10:25
fried corn with good old bacon grease
10:30
yes
10:34
i don't know if i need to turn these
10:37
down or not there's some hot spots
10:42
and we have to kind of try to
10:48
move it to the side a little bit
10:52
do y'all talk to yourself while you're
10:54
cooking
10:56
i do i do i do
11:10
you can see it gets
11:14
done quicker towards the center of our
11:16
pan
11:20
okay come on come on
11:30
we don't turn that so it has an
11:32
opportunity to
11:34
have the hottest side
11:44
i just like how you're digging into it
11:46
to get it to move because i would have
11:48
thought doing that would have made them
11:49
break
11:49
up well that would make me a nervous
11:51
strap
11:52
you know a nice slow gentle hand
11:58
you've heard of that slow pain
12:00
[Music]
12:02
all right this one looks brown to me
12:04
teresa i just saw it
12:05
yeah wow
12:08
that looks like a hoe cake shut up joan
12:13
wow
12:16

12:19
talent i got that one a little big
12:21

12:27

12:38

12:42

12:46
corn fritters
12:47
i want you to look at these
12:51
oh my goodness uh
12:54
you know now do we put butter on this
12:57
sir
12:58
you know what what i would say butter
13:00
syrup
13:02
hoe cake
13:09
it's very very good
13:13
um very very good
13:20
it was very very good
13:23
um
13:28
in fact it's delicious it's one of those
13:31
dishes that's
13:34
requires some work
13:37
but if you're into fresh corn
13:42
[Music]
13:44
i've just got to try it with a little
13:45
bit of butter on it
13:47
i need to tell my father-in-law he grows
13:49
corn he does
13:52
he'll save you some at the end of the
13:54
summer when it's tough
13:57
and if that was the case it wouldn't be
14:00
this thick
14:01
okay i mean this thin it would be
14:04
thicker so
14:07
i hope when joan sees this
14:11
she'll be able to tell me
14:15
it looks right or it doesn't look right
