OLD-FASHIONED SCALLOPED CORN
Scalloped corn is pure Americana. Enjoyed as old-fashioned comfort food throughout the United States, it's often attributed to New England, where any number of other ingredients are scalloped, like potatoes, oysters, clams and tomatoes. Cooks differ over whether to use heavy cream, condensed milk or white sauce, but nearly all agree buttered cracker crumbs or bread crumbs are essential for the topping. If you like, scalloped corn can be prepared several hours ahead of serving and reheated.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 375 degrees and position a rack in the middle. Use 1 tablespoon butter to grease a 9-inch square or round baking dish.
- Make the white sauce: Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook mixture for about 1 minute, until sizzling but not browned. Add milk 1/2 cup at a time, whisking well to keep sauce lump-free as it thickens. Raise heat and bring sauce to a simmer, then turn heat to low and cook, whisking occasionally, for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and a pinch of cayenne. Taste and adjust seasoning and set aside.
- Put 2 tablespoons butter in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and bell pepper and cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add corn kernels, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 2 minutes more, until corn is heated through. Turn off heat.
- Add white sauce to corn mixture and combine well, using a spatula or wooden spoon. Add beaten egg and stir well. Transfer skillet's contents to the prepared baking dish and smooth the top.
- Sprinkle with cracker crumbs and dot surface with 2 tablespoons butter, cut in small pieces. Bake on middle rack for 30 minutes or until bubbling and nicely browned. Serve piping hot.

Tips:
- Choose the freshest corn possible. Fresh corn will have plump kernels and a milky texture. Avoid corn that is dry or has brown spots.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the corn off the cob. This will help to prevent the kernels from becoming mashed.
- Cook the corn in a single layer. This will help to ensure that the corn cooks evenly.
- Do not overcook the corn. Overcooked corn will become tough and chewy. Cook the corn just until it is tender, about 5 minutes.
- Season the corn with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Garnish the corn with fresh herbs, such as parsley, cilantro, or chives.
Conclusion:
Scalloped corn is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed all summer long. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like it simple or loaded with cheese and bacon, scalloped corn is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
