This is a delicious version of an old New England recipe. Ingredients:
1 cup yellow cornmeal |
1/2 cup blackstrap molasses |
1/4 cup sugar |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
2 eggs, beaten |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg |
6 cups hot milk |
vanilla ice cream (for topping) |
Directions:
1. Mix the cornmeal and the molasses, sugar, butter salt, baking soda, eggs, and spices. 2. Add 3 cups of the hot milk, stirring carefully. 3. Place in a 2-quart bean pot or other covered pot and bake in a 400°F oven until all comes to a boil. 4. Then stir the remaining hot mild and bake, covered at 275°F for 4 to 6 hours, or until all is absorbed. 5. Stir every half hour. 6. Serve hot in little bowls with a bit of vanilla ice cream on top. |
