Amish Corn Fritters

4 lg. ears corn
2 eggs, separated
2 tbsp. all-purpose flour
1 tbsp. sugar
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Unsalted butter

Cut the kernels from two ears by standing each ear upright on a 
plate, carefully slice beneath the rows in a steady downward 
motion. With the back of the knife, scrape the cobs to extract 
the juice. Grate the kernels from the remaining 2 ears, cutting 
off the kernels at just half their depth and scraping off pulp on 
the cob. Put all the corn kernels, pulp and juice into a bowl. 
The mixture will resemble scrambled eggs. Beat the egg yolks in a 
large bowl until light. Beat in the flour, sugar, salt and pepper 
to taste. Stir in the corn. Beat the egg whites in a large bowl 
until stiff. Fold them into the corn mixture. Heat a heavy 
skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease it lightly with 
butter. Drop the batter by small spoonfuls onto the skillet and 
cook until golden. About 30 seconds each side. Transfer the 
cooked fritters to a lightly buttered serving platter and keep 
them warm in a low oven while cooking the remaining fritters.
