Maque Choux (Fried Corn With Green Peppers)

If you’re craving summer soul food or a Juneteenth side dish, look no further. This creamy corn and pepper dish is from <a href="https://twitter.com/thejemimacode?lang=en">Toni Tipton-Martin's</a> award-winning cookbook, Jubilee: Recipes from Two Centuries of African American Cooking. She credits this recipe to Monique Wells, a Texas transplant living in Paris, who helped “open the eyes of elite French cooks to the flavors of the American South and Southwest.”
