GRANDMA AND GRANDPA HANSON'S CORN AND OYSTERS

Steps:

• In a casserole dish layer 1 can drained corn, then half the oysters(chopped or left whole), then half the crackers, coarsely crumbled, then dot with butter, and sprinkle on salt and pepper. Layer again. Optional sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Beat together 2 eggs and about a cup of milk (optional flavoring- add Worcestershire sauce)and pour it all over. Using a knife to put through the layers to be sure that the milk and eggs go down through the bottom layer. If needed, add more eggs and milk as the milk mixture needs to cover up to the top of the crackers. Bake at 350 for an hour. If made ahead of time and refrigerated, reheat for at least 20-25 minutes.

CORN OYSTERS

Steps:

• Preheat oil to 375 degrees.
• Slice kernels off corn and remove any lingering silk. Place kernels in medium bowl.
• Add 4 tablespoons flour, yolks, salt, pepper and maple sugar. Knead the mixture through your fingers, bruising the kernels. This will release the corn's ''milk'' and help prevent small explosions when frying. The final consistency should be that of loose oatmeal. If it is too loose, add more flour.
• Beat egg whites and carefully fold into mixture.
• Drop mixture by tablespoonfuls (slide off spoon with your finger) into the hot fat. Cook 2 minutes on each side; drain thoroughly and serve with spicy tartar sauce (see recipe).

CORN OYSTERS

Steps:

• Grate the kernals from the cob into a medium bowl using the large holes of a box grater. Using the back of a knife, scrape any pulp remaining on the cobs into the bowl with the grated corn. Stir in the flour, cornstarch, eggs, salt, and remaining baking powder until well blended.
• Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat until it registers 350 degrees. Carefully drop 13 to 15 heaping T of batter into the hot oil and fry, turning once, until the corn oysters puff and are golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Add more oil to the pot if necessary and heat to 350 degrees. Repeat with remaining batter. Sprinkle the corn oysters with salt. Serve immediately.
• NOTE FROM TEST KITCHEN: Use only fresh corn for this recipe-frozen corn is too dry to produce a creamy batter. Be sure to keep temperature at 350, too low and the oysters become sodden with oil, too high and they become too dark before they are done.
