6 Medium Ears corn -- (6 to 8)
5 Medium potatoes -- peeled and cubed (5
to 6)
1 Medium onion -- sliced
4 Tbsp. butter
5 C. milk
salt and pepper to taste
8 common crackers -- crushed (8 to 10)

Cook fresh corn in a covered kettle with a little water
for about 12 minutes. Remove corn and add onion and potatoes
to corn water. Cook slowly, until just soft. Slice corn from
cob, add to kettle along with milk and butter. Bring to a boil
and simmer for 5 minutes. Salt and pepper to taste. Hold on a
warm burner without further boiling for 30 to 60 minutes to
gather flavor. Five minutes before serving add the crackers.
Two cans of cream style corn may be used instead of fresh corn
at other seasons. Either way, they'll want seconds.
