  • The secret to Jacques Pépin's corn fritters? Sparkling water! Although Jacques uses corn in this fritter recipe, you can substitute a variety of ingredients that you may already have on hand - apples, vegetables, or even meat leftovers.
    Helpful frying tip: use a wire rack instead of a paper towel when taking your fritter out of the pan. This will ensure that the bottom doesn't become soggy.
    What you'll need: All-purpose flour, baking powder, sparkling water, whole corn, oil, salt

    I made these last night. I liked them, but I think I used too much oil. Seemed a bit on the greasy side. Mine didn't get as brown either, even though I cooked them for longer than 3 minutes each side. Seemed to be missing a little something. But, they were easy and something different to go with boring old chicken.

    • @gringo3009

      Sounds like your oil wasn't hot enough, so it soaked in rather than browning. Just a guess.

    I just made them with diced bananas, and then finished with powdered sugar....my family was blown away. I couldn’t believe how easy the batter was. (1/2c flour, 1/4tsp baking powder, 3/4c carbonated water). I added some sugar in the batter too, but not necessary. Thank you Jacques Pepin for always giving us simple and efficient recipes that still pack the same punch as a long complex one!

  • @Roryu2fan
    @Roryu2fan 3 года назад +2

    I made these for my son and myself a few weeks ago. I salted the batter and put some chopped chives through it too. If you remove from the pan to a paper towel, the place on the wire rack it keeps them real crisp. Enjoy!

    I'll purposely cook a couple extra ears of sweet corn to make these in the summer,and use my sourdough discard as part of the batter,sometimes a little shrimp goes in,and that's supper! Maple syrup or gochujang for a dip.
    The sparkling water is a great addition.

    I serve often last night's dinner vedgetables in fritter with the fish or bird my husband brings home. He always laughs when I stress because I don't have allium to serve with the fritter! It's the perfect meal! I also serve a bean fritter too! Whatever breakfast I make, I serve with a pickled or boiled sour berry or vegetable which helps with digestion on such a fatty dish. My current seasonal favorite is a parsnip mash latke with pickled red onion and pan fried perch with fatty yougurt. My daughter likes it with blackberries; but my husband thinks it's not enough hearty. I give him a Mexican salsa to go with it and add a fried egg to help with his calories.

    Julia Child use to call the not so pretty side "the Non-Public side"!!! Lol!!! That was about crepes. I bet if you took some cheese and salsa this corn fritter could go Southwestern. I
