Fried Corn Cream Bacon Recipes

SOUTHERN-FRIED CORN RECIPE

Steps:

• Add the bacon to a cold 10-inch, cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat and cook for about five minutes or until the fat starts rendering out of the bacon.
• Turn the heat up to medium and cook, frequently turning, for another four to five minutes or until the bacon is browned and crispy. Remove the bacon and drain it on paper towels. Set aside. Leave the grease in the skillet.
• While the bacon is cooking, grab a deep bowl and a sharp knife. Hold each ear of corn up and slice the kernels off. You may have to go around several times to get all of the kernels. Then, take the back of the knife and scrape the cob to get all of that milky goodness. Don't skip this step.
• Add the butter to the skillet and when it is melted, add the corn. Season it with salt and pepper.
• Stir and cook it for anywhere from five to fifteen minutes. (The amount of time it will take to cook depends on how fresh the corn is; just-picked corn barely needs any cooking at all, and if it's older, it will take longer.) For this dish, it's important to taste it as it cooks to know when it's done.
• Remove it from the heat, top with crumbled bacon and serve immediately.

CREAMED CORN WITH BACON

Steps:

• For the stock:
• Place all ingredients in a large pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a lively simmer and cook to reduce liquid to 2 cups, approximately 30 minutes. Strain and reserve, keeping stock warm.
• To finish the corn:
• Begin heating a large saucepan, and glaze bottom with the extra-virgin olive oil. Add the lardons and cook over medium heat, rendering the fat and browning the pieces, stirring as needed. Add the onion and sweat, about 45 seconds. Add the garlic and continue to cook, stirring, another 30 seconds. Add the corn and salt, continuing to cook for another 2 minutes. Add the reserved corncob stock and bring to a simmer, cooking until the liquid reduces to approximately 2/3 cup. Add the creme fraiche and simmer 3 minutes or until the mixture begins to thicken. Add the butter and stir. Remove pan from heat; stir in cilantro and lime zest. Check for seasoning and serve.
