ISAAC HAYES' HOT BUTTERED FRIED CREAMED CORN
"Mama used to make this dish for me on her wood burning stove in the kitchen. When I make it nowadays, it lets me travel back in time in an instant and relive those happy times. There is nothing like the smell or taste of fresh-cooked bacon mixed with fried corn." 6 ears corn Emma 3 slices bacon 2 tablespoons butter 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour 1 cup evaporated milk, warmed Salt to taste Pepper to taste Cut the kernels off the ears; set aside. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, add bacon and fry until crisp. Drain on paper towels and crumble. In the drippings in the pan, saute the corn kernels until lightly browned. Add the butter and heat until melted. Stir in the flour until smooth and gradually stir in the evaporated milk. Stir in the crumbled bacon and cover and cook until the sauce is thickened, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
