It is corn season, and right before it leaves us for another year, I went to Zikki’s garden and picked some corn husks to share with you the recipe for these beautiful pancakes. They are different from what you are used to. Besides the natural sweetness of the corn, these pancakes are not sweet; there is no added sugar to the batter. This is why I decided to finish them with tons of grated Parmigiano Reggiano and a sexy extra virgin olive oil. In the batter itself, I used blended corn and whole kernels which give the pancakes another dimension. You have to make it! Make sure to do it before the end of the season. YASSS.
