Emeril's Favorites Contest: Day Three

On the Menu: I Cook Michigan

To showcase his beloved home state, Grostick has designed an elegant yet imaginative menu that incorporates Michigan ingredients into every course. Check out the menu below (Coney dogs!), then click here to make a reservation for a taste of the Great Lakes State.

Recipe: Elizabeth Karmel's White Corn Pudding
In this custardy corn pudding from Elizabeth Karmel of New York's Hill Country, puréed sweet corn is spiked with spices and thickened with cheeses to make a sinfully rich side that will stand its ground next to any bite of brawny barbecue. Chef Karmel prefers frozen shoepeg corn, a mild cultivar that's named after the tiny wooden pegs that were once used to attach shoe soles to uppers. If you can't find it, any corn in your local frozen-food aisle will work fine. Get the recipe here, or try the dish at Saturday's Chefs & Champagne® New York.

We're happy to announce that N. Reinheimer of Raleigh, North Carolina, is the lucky winner of the Lenox salad set! Thanks to everyone who played. You can see all of our readers' ideas for summer salads here.Recipe: Emeril Lagasse's Shrimp Rémoulade
