INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Butter a 12-cup muffin pan. In a large mixing
bowl, mix together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and
pepper. Make a well in the center of the mixture and add the egg,
buttermilk, oil, corn, chiles and cayenne. Whisking from the center,
combine the ingredients into a loose and slightly lumpy batter. Pour the
batter into the prepared muffin cups, place a chile stem-end upright in the
top of each muffin and bake for 15 minutes, or until the muffins begin to
pull away from the sides of the pan. Place the pan on a rack to cool for
about 10 minutes, and serve warm or at room temperature. This recipe yields
12 muffins.
Comments: Fresh chiles and bell peppers can be roasted over a gas flame or
on a tray under the broiler. Keep turning so the skin is evenly charred,
without burning and drying out the flesh. Transfer the charred peppers to a
plastic bag, tie the top closed and let steam until cool to the touch,
about 15 minutes. The best way to peel is just to pull off the charred skin
by hand and then dip the peppers briefly in water to remove any blackened
bits. Do not peel the peppers under running water since that will wash away
flavorful juices.
