Comments on: Maque Choux https://www.closetcooking.com/maque-choux/ Cooking adventures in a small, closet sized, kitchen. - I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.

The description may be a little off; the idea here is that you do not cut the corn off of the cob as close to the cob as possible, you want to leave a little on the cob. This remaining bit is scraped off of the cob with the back of a knife and it is more of a juicy paste. This way you get both the texture of the whole kernels and some juicy corn paste to help form the sauce. Enjoy!

I am wondering what you do with the 1/3 corn that was set aside in the large bowl? I am looking forward to making this recipe. Thanks for sharing!

Confused about the directions. Step 6 you say to use immersion blender to puree 1/4 of the corn mixture, the corn mixture that you said to set aside, but you don't say what to do with it once it's blended. Step 7 says Mix in the green onions, season with salt, pepper and cayenne to taste. I assume that is to be added to the onion, celery and bell pepper mix from step 4. So my question is what am I supposed to do with the 1/4 corn in step 6 after I've blended it?

I had Maque Choux at my first meal in New Orleans and loved it. I will definitely have to save this one for later.
