- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup Carpenter's Johnnycake Meal
- 1 cup boiling water
- 3 to 4 tablespoons milk
- Bacon grease or corn oil, for frying
- Butter, as an accompaniment
Directions
Combine sugar and salt with meal in large mixing bowl. Scald with boiling water and stir well. Thin immediately with milk to a mixture that will drop easily from spoon (additional milk may be necessary: mixture should be consistency of thin mashed potato).
