Take six ears of new corn and grate and scrape them well. Beat one egg very light, and add to it, beating all well together, one tablespoonful of flour, one tablespoonful of cream, and a little pepper and salt. Then mix all together and fry them in lard or butter.

Mock Oyster Fritters

Wash some roots of salsify, grate them, and season with pepper and salt. Beat the yolks of two eggs very light, stir them into a pint of milk and enough flour to make a batter. Whisk the whites dry, and add them gradually with the salsify to the batter. Dip out a spoonful at a time, and fry them like other fritters.

Corn Oysters

One pint of grated green corn, two eggs, and as much wheat flour as will make it adhere together. Beat the eggs, mix them with the grated corn, and add enough flour to form the whole into a paste. Fry them of a light brown, in hot lard.
