Corn Breads

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no oven temperature. The 350°F (175°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.

  1. Scald cornmeal with boiling water to make mush.

  2. Mix in enough water to form a medium slack dough.

  3. Shape the dough and place it in a covered pan.

  4. Bake in a 350°F (175°C) oven until done, ensuring it is not sticky when cut.

Transcribed from a scanned cookbook and modernised for today's kitchens. Where the book gave no heat or time, or said "a moderate oven", the temperatures and times here may be modern equivalents rather than the book's own figures.
