    List of Ingredients




    6-8 cobs of sweet corn
    1 tsp (5 ml) butter
    1 small shallot, finely chopped
    1 jalapeno pepper (or to taste), finely chopped
    1 clove garlic, finely chopped
    1/2 cup white wine or water
    1 cup (250 ml) heavy cream
    1/2 cup (125 ml) chopped fresh basil

    Recipe



    Cut the kernels from the cobs, catching them in a mixing bowl, and
    scrape the cobs with the back of the knife to extract the liquids from
    the cobs, catching it in the same bowl. You should have about 4 cups
    (1 L) of the corn and liquid mixture. Combine the butter, shallots,
    jalapeno, and garlic in a medium saucepan and cook over moderate heat
    until the shallots are soft but not browned. Add the corn with its
    liquid and cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the wine and
    cream and continue cooking until reduced by half. Add the basil and
    serve immediately. Serves 6 to 8.
