HOUSEHOLD TOPICS

For green corn pudding, cut the kerr
nels from half dozen ears, en0nlgh !
to make pint, and chop them fine.
Make a custard mixture with about a
oupful and a half OF milk, two eggs
beaten thoroughly. a tablespoonful of
melted butter. and salt and pepper to
taste. Bake in custard cups until the
custard Is set. Serve as a vegetable.
Some persons add a little sugar The
exact quantity Of milk cannot be
given, as some corn has more milk
than others. The cook will have to
use judgment in this regard.
The corn roasted in a campfire may
taste sweeter because the appetite is
whetted by the surroundings. but 1t
is not a whit more tasty than that
roasted under the gas in the broiler or
toaster of the gas range. Take off the
husks and silk before cooking. Serve
very hot with plenty of butter It will
take only six or seven minutes and will
need turning.
To make corn chowder cut a piece
Of salt pork into dice and fry out the
fat. Put in an onion cut fine and fry
1t until IL is golden brown. Then turn
off the fat through a strainer and add
to it four potatoes that have been cut
in slices and parboiled, two cupfuls OF
hot water and pint OF corn cut from
the cob. Cook until potatoes and corn
are tender and turn in a quart Of milk.
Scald the mixture, season with salt
and pepper and turn It over split
crackers in the bottom of a tureen.
Green corn fritters are made by mix
ing two cupfuls of kernels cut from
the cob and chopped fine with half a
cupful of -four, seasoning with salt and
pepper, dropping by the tablespoonful
into hot fat and frying until they are
golden brown.
For green corn griddle cakes make
regular griddle cake batter with corn
cut from the cob, milk, salt and pepper
and -four to thicken and baking pow
der used in the proportion of a tea
spoonful to a cupful of flour. The bat
ter should be thin enough to run and
only enough -four should be used to
give the cakes substance, more -four
may be used, but the cakes will not
be so rich. 1t is an excellent way to
use up cold boiled corn.
For green corn soup cut the corn
from eight ears and boil it with the
cobs to extract all the milk from them.
Some upstate cooks boil a few Of the
tender white husks in the idea that
they contain a delicate corn flavor.
Add a little sugar. only enough to re-
store any lost sweetness Of the natural
kernel. Season with salt, pepper and
butter and thiclen with -four enough
to prevent the soup from being watery
