Jarney .. Johnny Cake


1 c stone ground white cornmeal
1 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 c boiling water

Mix and let set for awhile
Med/Hot Griddle (Griswold button Bottom)
I like bacon grease
Teaspoon onto the griddle.
Cook on the griddle til they dry out some and flip.
I like mine browned a bit.
Serve with Butter n Syrup (stirred together)

For a different version:

1/2 c finely ground corn meal, better yet, corn flour
1 c regular white flour,
1/2 tsp salt.
1 1/2 tsp Baking Powder.
1 egg.
1 1/4 c to 1 1/2 c milk. More if needed

Mix together well and spoon onto med hot and well greased griddle. I still like bacon grease but butter or oil or both works great. Wait until it starts to dry out on top, flip and fry until done.

I make a mix of all the dry ingredients and store it in a sealed container until I want to make them, then I just add an egg and about 1 c cream or milk and spoon some of the dry mix in and make them like thinner pancake batter. 212° is quicker but watch them.
