Summer Corn & Basil Ragù

A brothy, buttery late-summer ragù that happens when you overshop at the farmers' market. Almost all pantry — corn, basil, a little wine, a spoon of white miso to finish.


Notes

Halved the salt — nicer balance. — Sam's 30th. Doubled it. Everyone wanted seconds. —


Ingredients
  • 6 ears sweet corn, kernels scraped (cobs reserved)
  • 1 shallot, minced
  • 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 1 tbsp white miso
  • 1 cup basil leaves, torn
  • 3 tbsp ( 42 g, 1.5 oz ) unsalted butter
  • Olive oil, salt, black pepper

Method
  1. 6 ears sweet corn · 3 cups water
    i. Scrape kernels into a bowl. Simmer the stripped cobs in 3 cups water for 20 minutes for a quick corn stock. Strain.
  2. olive oil · 1 shallot · 3 garlic cloves
    ii. Heat a wide pan over medium. Coat with olive oil, sweat shallot until translucent, 4 minutes. Add garlic, 30 seconds.
  3. the scraped kernels · salt
    iii. Add kernels and a pinch of salt. Cook 3 minutes, until they pop and turn glossy.
  4. 1 cup white wine · 2 cups corn stock · 1 tbsp white miso
    iv. Deglaze with wine; reduce by half. Add 2 cups stock and the miso. Simmer gently 8 minutes — it should thicken to a loose ragù.

    10–12 minutes — thickens better.

  5. 3 tbsp butter · 1 cup basil · black pepper
    v. Off heat, stir in butter and torn basil. Taste; pepper heavily.
  6. toasted bread or polenta
    vi. Spoon onto toasted bread or polenta.
