How to cook the perfect summer meal with your haul from the farm pond.
Prepare your mouth for a whole lotta South: largemouth bass, country ham, and sweet corn encased in a sizzling golden crust and nestled into a cool bed of Tabasco-spiked cucumber remoulade. This is a great summertime meal, and because just about anything you might pull from a bass lake will work in this recipe, it’s also an excellent option when you find yourself with a mixed stringer. Make sure to use Japanese-style panko bread crumbs, available at most supermarkets—regular bread crumbs won’t get you the same light crispiness.
