Grew up on this yummy treat.
Difficulty: Easy
Servings: 1
Ingredients
3/4 cup cold water
1/4 cup cornmeal
salt
butter
milk
Directions
Stir together the water, salt, and cornmeal until well combined.
Add a dab of butter.
While constantly stirring, bring to a boil then reduce to a slow simmer.
Cook until thickened and then a minute or so more.
Spoon into a bowl, top with butter and a splash of cold milk.
*If you’re feeling adventurous, double the batch and leave out the 2nd dab of butter and milk. Pour the mush into a lightly buttered loaf pan and pop it in the fridge over night or for a few hours until set. Heat up some butter or bacon grease in a frying pan, thickly slice the mush, and fry on both sides until golden brown and slightly crisp. This is great topped with cane or maple syrup.

Double this, and it turned out awesome (used Cousin Sheryl’s white cornmeal from the Retreat…YUM!). It never really came to a boil, but with constant stirring, it thickened & was done in only about 5 minutes. And best of all, NO LUMPS! I may have this every day now. 😀
