Best 10 Corn Oysters Recipes

FRIED OYSTERS WITH HORSERADISH CREAM AND TOMATO CORN SALSA

Steps:

• Combine the corn, tomatoes, onions, jalapenos, cilantro, lime juice, and lemon juice. Mix well. Season the salsa with salt and pepper. Set the salsa aside. In a saucepan, combine the horseradish, shallots, garlic, mustard, white pepper and cream. Season with salt and pepper. Bring the liquid to a boil, whisking gently. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, for about 12 minutes. Remove from the heat and keep warm.
• In a small bowl, season the flour with Essence. In another bowl, season the masa with Essence. In a third bowl, beat the eggs with the milk. Season the oysters with Essence. Dredge the oysters in the seasoned flour. Dip the oysters in the egg wash, letting the excess drip off. Dredge the oysters in the seasoned masa, coating each side completely. In a large saute pan, heat the olive oil. When the oil is hot, but not smoking, carefully lay the oysters in the hot oil. Pan-fry the oysters for about 1 1/2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove the oysters form the pan and drain on a paper-lined plate. Season the oysters with Essence. Serve the oysters with the horseradish cream and salsa.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly.

CORN OYSTERS

Steps:

• Holding the base of an ear of corn in a medium bowl, slice downward, cutting halfway through the kernels. Using the back of the knife or a small spoon, scrape downward along the cob to extract the milk, letting it fall into the bowl with the cut kernels. Cut again along the cob, this time cutting close enough to remove the remaining half of the kernels. Repeat with the remaining ears.
• In a small bowl, whisk the egg yolks until pale and slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Then add the yolks to the corn. Stir in the heavy cream and jalapeno.
• Stir the flour, baking powder, salt, cayenne, and sugar together in a bowl. Then stir the flour mixture into the corn mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
• Beat the egg whites until medium to stiff peaks form. Fold the whites into the corn mixture until thoroughly combined.
• Fill a heavy-bottomed Dutch oven or a deep iron skillet halfway with vegetable oil (so it is 2 to 4 inches deep). Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350 degrees.
• When the oil is hot, carefully add 2-tablespoon scoops of the corn mixture, working in batches and being careful not to overcrowd the pan. (While they are cooking, the fritters may spatter hot oil, so be careful; a splatter screen may come in handy.) Fry the fritters for 6 minutes, or until they are golden and cooked through, turning them as needed for even color. Remove, and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Season with the Essence, and serve immediately.

BAKED CORN AND OYSTERS

Steps:

• 1. Combine ingredients in order given: corn, cracker crumbs, eggs, salt, milk, black pepper, sugar, butter and oysters.
• 2. Bake the mixture in a greased 1 1/2 quart baking dish at 375 degrees for 25 minutes.
• 3. Do not over bake or oysters will become tough.

CRISPY FRIED OYSTERS WITH SWEET CORN CILANTRO SALSA

Steps:

• For the corn puree: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter. Add the corn and chicken stock. Cook until the corn is cooked and most of the liquid has evaporated, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool slightly, and then place the corn in a blender and blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
• Cook's Note: When blending hot liquids, remove liquid from the heat and allow to cool for at least 5 minutes. Transfer liquid to a blender or food processor and fill it no more than halfway. If using a blender, release one corner of the lid. This prevents the vacuum effect that creates heat explosions. Place a towel over the top of the machine, pulse a few times then process on high speed until smooth.
• For the salsa: In a small mixing bowl, combine the corn, lemon juice, vinegar, cilantro, scallion and red peppers. Season with salt and pepper.
• For the oysters: Set three shallow bowls next to one another. Place the flour in the first bowl, then place the buttermilk and egg in the next bowl and place the cornmeal in the last bowl. Use a fork to whisk the egg into the buttermilk. Dredge the oysters, one at a time, in the bowl with the flour, shaking to remove any excess. Then dip the oyster into the bowl with buttermilk. Once covered in the egg wash, place the oysters into the cornmeal.
• Set a large saute pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Add the oysters to the pan and fry until golden brown, about 1 minute. Turn the oysters to the other side and cook another minute or until golden brown. Remove the oysters with a slotted spoon onto a paper towel.
• Place 1 teaspoon of corn puree in an oyster shell. Place a fried oyster on top of the puree. Top each oyster with 1 teaspoon corn salsa. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

CORN OYSTERS

Steps:

• Preheat oil to 375 degrees.
• Slice kernels off corn and remove any lingering silk. Place kernels in medium bowl.
• Add 4 tablespoons flour, yolks, salt, pepper and maple sugar. Knead the mixture through your fingers, bruising the kernels. This will release the corn's ''milk'' and help prevent small explosions when frying. The final consistency should be that of loose oatmeal. If it is too loose, add more flour.
• Beat egg whites and carefully fold into mixture.
• Drop mixture by tablespoonfuls (slide off spoon with your finger) into the hot fat. Cook 2 minutes on each side; drain thoroughly and serve with spicy tartar sauce (see recipe).

CORN OYSTERS

Steps:

• Scrape or grate corn from cob.
• Mix flour/ salt with egg and milk to make a batter.
• Stir in the corn.
• Drop by spoonfuls into hot butter and fry until brown; turn over and brown other side.
• Serve hot.

CORN OYSTERS

Steps:

• Grate the kernals from the cob into a medium bowl using the large holes of a box grater. Using the back of a knife, scrape any pulp remaining on the cobs into the bowl with the grated corn. Stir in the flour, cornstarch, eggs, salt, and remaining baking powder until well blended.
• Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat until it registers 350 degrees. Carefully drop 13 to 15 heaping T of batter into the hot oil and fry, turning once, until the corn oysters puff and are golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Add more oil to the pot if necessary and heat to 350 degrees. Repeat with remaining batter. Sprinkle the corn oysters with salt. Serve immediately.
• NOTE FROM TEST KITCHEN: Use only fresh corn for this recipe-frozen corn is too dry to produce a creamy batter. Be sure to keep temperature at 350, too low and the oysters become sodden with oil, too high and they become too dark before they are done.

GRILLED OYSTERS WITH CRAWFISH BUTTER, PICKLED CORN AND CHIVES

Steps:

• Shuck oysters if not already. Season raw oysters with salt and pepper and set aside in the fridge while grill is getting ready. Take about 1 tablespoon of crawfish butter and place atop each oyster. Grill oysters on medium heat, covered for about 5 minutes or so till butter is melted and oysters are cooked through. Carefully place oysters on a serving tray lined with rock salt or on a thick cloth napkin. You want to make sure that none of the oyster liquor or melted butter runs off. I used pickled baby corn for this recipe and just cut the kernels off and tossed with a little bit of salt & pepper, olive oil and a teaspoon of white wine vinegar. Depending on what brand or type you use you may have to cut the kernels smaller. You could also make your own if feeling adventurous. When ready to serve, top with pickled corn kernels and chopped chives. Drizzle with just a touch of olive oil. Chef: Michael O'Boyle Credits: ChickenFriedGourmet.com
