Travel anywhere in the south and surely you'll hear about these traditional cornbread delicacies. You have to try them. Ingredients:
1 cup white cornmeal |
4 tsp. sifted flour |
2 tsp. baking powder |
1/2 tsp. salt if desired |
1 tbsp. sugar |
1 1/4 cups boiling water |
fat for deep-frying |
Directions:
1. Put the cornmeal in a mixing bowl and add the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. It is imperative that the water be boiling before it is added. Stir the mixture well while adding the boiling water. Blend thoroughly. Meanwhile, heat the fat to 360 degrees. Drop the batter by spoonfuls (about 1 1/2 tbsp.) into it. Cook until golden brown and crisp, turning the pieces as they cook. |
