"When treasures are recipes they are less clearly, less distinctly remembered than when they are tangible objects. They evoke however quite as vivid a feeling-that is, to some of use who, considering cooking an art, feel that a way of cooking can produce something that approaches an aesthetic emotion. What more can one say? If one had the choice of again hearing Pachmann play the two Chopin sonatas or dining once more at the Cafe Anglais, which would one choose?" |

1. Preheat the broiler.
2. Arrange the Poblano chiles in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Broil until charred on all sides. Wrap in a plastic bag and cool.
3. Peel the skins from the chiles, and carefully make a slit in one
side of each chile. Remove and discard the seeds, rinse the chiles,
and pat dry.
4. Combine the two cheeses, corn, basil and oregano in a medium bowl.
Season this filling with pepper. Gently stuff each chile with 2-3
tablespoons of the filling, depending on the size of the chile.
5. Pour corn oil to a depth of 1" in a very large, heavy saucepan or
deep skillet. Heat the oven to 350F.
6. Beat the egg yolks in a medium sized bowl until slightly
thickened. Use clean, dry beaters to beat the egg whites in a large
bowl until stiff but not dry. Fold the egg yolks along with the
flour, baking soda, and salt into tht egg whites. Place additional
flour in a flat dish.
7. Roll each chile in flour to coat. Working in batches, dip each
chile into the batter. Fry until golden brown (about 2 minutes per
side.)
8. Transfer to paper towels using a slotted spoon. Place 1/4 cup of
the red chile sauce on each serving plate, and top the sauce with 2
chiles rellenos. Garnish with cilantro sprigs. Serve hot!
