Green Corn Oysters
One pint of grated green corn, one cup of flour, one dessert spoonful of salt, one teaspoonful of pepper and a egg.
Mix together and drop into into hot lard to fry. This is a breakfast dish.
This recipe is from 1877-1887. Lacadio Hearn's Creole Cookbook.
From reading the book I would take green corn to mean green as in fresh from the stock of the plant and not a color. So use the very freshest corn you can find. I would make the "oysters" about the size of a tablespoon.
