    buy it in single (or double) portions ready-to-cook at Robert's Fish Market. Which is very convenient

    It does look good, but have you priced crab lately?

    OY! Vey ist mir! I just looked at the pricing at Robert's (4th generation family-owned). Over U$30/lb. Fortunately that recipe will work well with
    Krab (surimi) @ U$6.99/lb. Bv)=

    You'll probably want to leave off/substitute the corn in this recipe.
    But, it does look good.

    Hi Dave,

    buy it in single (or double) portions ready-to-cook at Robert's Fish Market. Which is very convenient

    The real thing is expensive even here, closer to the coast. But it's
    worth it for some things, as a splurge.

    It does look good, even without the corn. We tried a new to us
    Guatamalan restaurant last night. Split a mixed grill of chicken, beef
    and pork with sides of black bean, salad and rice with potatoes. Have to remember next time to have them hold the cilantro. We both finished the
    salad and beans, had about half the meat (brought the other half home)
    and I also brought some rice home. The meat came with a couple of young
    onions, grilled Roma tomatoes and a big (!) jalapeno pepper--Steve
    thought it was a young zuchinni at first from the size of it. When we go
    back, I'm going to try the elote drink.

    Title: Atol de Elote (Sweet Corn & Milk Drink)
    Categories: Five, Vegetables, Dairy, Beverages
    Yield: 7 servings

    3 Cobs fresh corn (1 3/4 lb)
    2 c Whole milk
    1/2 c Raw turbinado sugar
    1/4 ts Ground cinnamon; or more
    1/2 ts Kosher salt

    Cut the kernels from the corn cobs, reserving the
    kernels (about 2 cups) and their juices (put the cobs
    in the compost pile). Set a few kernels aside as garnish
    if desired.

    Transfer to a high-powered blender and blend briefly
    until coarsely ground. Add 2 cups water, the milk,
    sugar, and cinnamon, and blend until smooth.

    In a medium pot over medium-low heat, add the corn
    mixture; bring to a low boil, about 20 minutes. Stir in
    the salt and let the mixture boil until thickened, about
    15 minutes more.

    Ladle the atol into cups and serve warm, garnished with
    any reserved cooked corn kernels if desired.

    Serves: 6 - 8

    We went to a local Mexican restaurant on the invitation of one of the
    young men in our church. Another one joined up, had a good meal and good conversation as well--no crowds either. Steve had the pollo crema
    (chicken in a chipotle cream sauce; I had the 3 enchiladas (cheese, beef
    and chicken) with a green mole sauce--brought the chicken one home and
    just enjoyed it for lunch.

    Thanks, it looks similar to hortchata but subbing corn for the rice.
