Thank you 😀

This is the ONLY place that explains WHY to use certain items and the science behind the art of cooking. I always watch the show when I can catch it on PBS.

[@artistaloca4]

Hi. Are you familiar with Alton Brown? Check out his older shows, he gets scientific with a little decent humor thrown in. Also, Beakman's World (PBS).... 😉 just kidding, kinda... You have a brocrush on Bill Nye, don't you? C'mon, fess up!! 😁 .. again, just kidding... I love that cooking is scientific, it allows me to consider my own dinnertime contraptions. 😂 Stay safe, Brother❣️

Except for Dr. John Campbell's broccoli soup. He goes into lots (TMI?) of information about what he's making. It's amazing soup but if you're squeamish, some of his narrative may put you off.

Saving this recipe for corn season here in Norway. Shouldn't be too long now, thank goodness!

[@MMLynnmarie]

Made this recipe twice but I used frozen corn instead. This is awesome. Very good. Will be making this frequently.

[@adessachui7777]

I made these yesterday and they were excellent. I didn't put the parmesan in though. I just couldn't do it but I added a little extra salt instead. My boyfriend loved them too and likes them better than the pancake kind. Don't forget to put confectioners sugar on top. Thank You for the recipe!

[@kevinhullinger8743]

For those curious I made these today using thawed frozen corn and they were still delicious 👌🏻

[@angelado5955]

I just made this recipe today and the corn fritters are the best so far . Thanks

[@francesvachon9516]

Just made them. "Chef's kiss". Will double the recipe next time and use frozen instead of fresh corn. Will also freeze a few for fritter emergencies. Can't wait to make them again!

[@ahnaahna7278]

Now I understand the first creaming of some of the corn. I will try with creamed corn....then cook to reduce the moisture(follow your minimal flour info). Like u, I want crispy fritters. I wanna do it better.....the first time. Glad I saw your explanations of the.....science behind the fritters. We eat mainly veggies so tasty and nutritious is greatly valued!! I watch your shows on CreateTV and on PBS in the USA!! I am gratefully subscribed!!! Ahna USA

[@all-gone]

This looks so yummy. I’m saving it for sweet corn season in Florida too. I can wait to make these with the wonderful flavoured accompaniment. Thank you!

[@shopwithaaron]

I remember the 1st time I had corn fritters...at a winery open house in Central coast of California...delicious served with a spicy and sweet pineapple salsa! Waited for each warm batch to be passed!

[@donegal79]

fantastic- delicious with beautiful Australian sweet corn! Yes of course I did everything upside-down.

[@kazabushy]

I added chopped ham and finely chopped onion and capsicum. Yum. I'm going to experiment with streaky bacon tonight. Im not sure if the fat in the bacon will ruin it. We'll see...

[@janettemasiello5560]

These look to be the best corn fritters that I've ever seen ! I can't wait to make them. Question, instead of wheat flower , can I use corn meal ?

[@warrenlauzon5315]

I have tried a few of those "country", "mama used to make", and "traditional" recipes found on KZbin (far too often featuring some "Southern cook" with a highly exaggerated fake country accent". This recipe takes a little longer, but is much better than any of those that I have tried. Most - as the speaker noted - are not much more than pancakes with bits of corn. Will usually toss in a couple heaping spoons of corn meal. I usually make this with frozen corn, as the corn season here is pretty short - not quite as good as fresh, but much better than the canned corn some recipes use. I also generally use chopped green onions vs the chives (semi-Asian style).

[@Wendy-Texas]

I would pay someone to make these for me. Oh my they look delicious!

[@mizzmo2769]

I just made these for dinner, and wow!! absolutely so tasty and crispy. These are my go to for Corn Fritters now 😍

[@Cinco-da-mayo]

I just love ❤️ Keith 😍😍😍

[@mjbusse3098]

Just made them - very good - but will add more cayenne and a bit more salt - guess it depends on how sweet the corn is. But was easy to do!! Thank you.

[@williammatthews2948]

Dang. I could eat eleven of those. I'll be trying this recipe very soon. Thanks.

[@chadmackie3438]

ATK is always on another level. Such awesome recipes

[@elizabethshaw734]

Aaron Sanchez had a recipe exactly like this! His mother used to make them. Here in Maine we make corn oysters which are a corn fritter and they are crispy and delicious! :-)

[@juliarisi8385]

Had some ears of corn and I usually use recipe from Joy of Cooking but wasn’t happy with the pancake like texture . Scrolling through recipes and watching lots of videos to look for the ultimate corn fritter recipe. Can always rely on Test Kitchen for the answer to our prayers .

[@vickivail3747]

These look so tasty with that concentrated flavor, can't wait to try them! I also love that sweet corn cake/ scoopable pudding some people call it. I see it used on the side of some Mexican meat dishes , I'd love to see a recipe like that as well! Sweet and spicy is always good together. Thank you for everything you do! It is greatly appreciated 😍

[@mariyabriggs1040]

I'm making this too, I have to get circle device, I'm so happy I viewed your channel.

[@rachelcarson7019]

These are awesome!! I use green onions because a rarely have fresh chives. And I rolled them in cornmeal before frying and flattening once. It makes even more texture. Thanks ATK! 😃

[@drdriveone]

This is really good. A drained can of corn gives you about 1.5 cups of corn kernels. I used Sriracha Mayo instead, since that is what I had on hand.

[@nikaward6048]

Wow This is amazing!

[@michellestephens2612]

Question: Is this 3 cups of corn, total? 1 1/2 puree and 1 1/2 whole kernels?

[@125dutchboy]

Yes

[@mjbusse3098]

Yes, wasn't specified - so 4 ears of corn was not enough - had to use 5 (five)

[@brianyoung3]

Looks good. Try draining on a wire rack after cooking to keep them crispy

[@donzagrant588]

I'm wondering if he had put the puree in a cheese cloth and squeezed the milk out would that have worked also

[@jong2359]

Conceptually it would work if you didn't care about the extra flavor you get from cooking it.

[@artistaloca4]

Thought same. And Jon G - no disrespect, but looks to me there's plenty flavor already in there. I'd use that cornmilk for something else

[@daveklein2826]

No don't do that

[@terrysimpson3681]

I just had supper. But after watching this ?, I'm hungry for fritters!.

[@IngaHicks]

I wonder if you can use frozen corn for this recipe??

[@JVerschueren]

Don't see why not... just put in a sieve over a bowl to thaw. I was thinking of just draining two small cans of corn for a test batch. Not a big fan of chucking corn to begin with and seeing as ears of corn are quite expensive here, I'd like to see if I'm a fan before shelling out for 4.

[@AirrowRocket]

Sure.

[@frankpeter6851]

Same thought... But maybe just for the puree, then the fresh for the kernals

[@fullyvictorious]

Yum

[@tonyhe9937]

i hop they see this because this is a great tip for anything. when flattening you should flip it first so it’s still a ball but one side is crisp and you flip the ball then flatten so your spatula doesn’t stick to your burger or fritter

[@tosht2515]

@Tony He If you flatten the "ball" after cooking one side the result is a larger diameter flattened patty or fritter with a partially uncooked top. So, you would need to flip a second time to cook the raw part which would overcook the whole thing.

[@tonyhe9937]

Tosh T you’re not fully cooking it tho. you’re only waiting for it to barely set so it doesn’t stick.

[@DoctorNoMD]

I have to try this!

[@jeremiahcomplex]

Yes!!!!

[@jdbagel1]

Thank you for the content. Why does the production always feel like an infomercial, though?

jdbagel1 that’s the new ATK. I don’t like it for that exact reason. I couldn’t pinpoint it but an infomercial is exactly what it is.

[@damianrhea8875]

These corn fritters could be the main course of a vegetarian dinner.

[@pastorjustin4181]

Can these be frozen thawed then recooked/heated and keep a good texture and flavor??😎😎

[@daveklein2826]

Absolutely

[@msr1116]

Cutting kernels off a vertical cob with a chef's knife is impossible for me to manage well, so I bought a few Oxo mini santoku knives. With a four to five inch blade, I don't need to use the biggest bowl in existence to avoid an awkward cutting angle or hitting the glass edge with the handle. My serrated chef's knives are only for bread these days, the others sit in a drawer.

[@rabblerouser8195]

you could use the ol' bundt pan

[@roydcruz]

can you used canned corn for this recipe?

[@TheKentuckylady717]

You need to scrape the corn cobs with a knife and get all the milky juice out of it......and don't puree the corn, this is not the right way the Southerns do it..... you also can use canned corn or frozen corn, but drain well......add some parsley for color,,,can add some thinly sliced green onion or chopped fine yellow onion.....can add a few shakes of garlic powder and a little hot sauce for flavor.....try it.....

[@lindiphillips7271]

Like the corn batter recipe then spoilt with chilli sauce, sour cream or natural yoghurt with chives will do me, Can't be in same room where chilli is being prepared, everyone's obsession with the stuff.

[@williamlinington9166]

Placing them on a paper towel is a mistake. A with rack is better. The paper towel can cause the underside to become moist.

[@Avacarho]

Could ATK come up with the perfect recipe for veggie tots, especially corn tots, like the ones made by Green Giant? I love them, but at $3.50-4.50 a bag depending on where you buy them, they're a bit pricey especially when trying to get kids to eat more veggies.

[@sbjennings99]

Awesome informative Video experience Y'alls God Bless Ya Prayers 🙏

[@frankpeter6851]

If you wanted to do this for a large crowd, could you use your oven to drive off the moisture from the pureed corn... Like, spread it out on a parchment lined sheet pan. Maybe give it a few stirs during the baking process?

[@mjbusse3098]

I do

[@dreyhawk]

I have 2 questions. First, can I substitute a good paprika for the cayenne since I'm allergic to capsaicin? Second, if fresh corn is unavailable can frozen corn be used?

[@sandrab.5065]

This recipe is beautiful BUT bland. I used frozen corn ( off season here.) I had to tweak the recipe by adding extra salt, flour, pepper flakes, and some shrimp. I also subbed chives with green onions. Despite that, this recipe has potential. I imagine once I perfect this dish to my taste, it will be a wonderful side dish with salmon or tilapia. 😄 I know the chef made a dipping sauce, but I am bypassing that. It is my personal preference.

[@TerryBowl]

Hey question here. At what temperature do the starch granules burst and get crispy? Also, could this be why some times your fried food doesn’t get crispy (i.e. because of overcrowding)?

[@NB-ky5ol]

Joram van der Luit yes, overcrowding can prevent your stuff from crisping, also too much moisture can prevent it. Pat the food dry prevent steaming.

[@TerryBowl]

@@NB-ky5ol that was not really the question. I actually stated the fact that overcrowding prevents crispiness.
