I swore I would not make any cooking stories in the heat of the
summer, but...fresh huitlacoche is available only as the corn crop
matures. So here is what Adriana made from what Nery and I picked on
a nearby farm: http://rollybrook.com/ar-huitlacoche.htm

It's been too dry this year here in Virginia for huitlacoche. About 10
years ago we had a rather wet year and I was able to get loads of
huitlacoche that was growing on the Silver Queen corn. (I'm not fond
of white corn, but the fungus seemed to prefer the white corn..)

I made some chiles rellenos stuffrd with shrimp & huitlacoche.. also I
used it as a filling with chicken in enchiladas verdes..

Rolly what a great story. I am so glad you that you posted this even in
the heat of the summer. It is always a pleasure seeing your posts.

Oh! We are having a very wet summer here in New England. Could
the farmstands be savvy enough to market huitlacoche?! That would
be too wonderful!

Hmmm. I'll bring that up at my favorite farmstand.

Actually, can on spot it at pick-your-own corn places? If so,...
