>Yum! My grandpa used to make cornmeal mush for breakfast and I had totally forgotten about it. Do you just cook it in water? Or how do you make it? I bet my kids would really like it.
>SustainableEats,
My grandpa made it for me too! I usually make a big batch of it so I can save some the next day for fried mush. I take three cups corn meal and add three cups water and three tablespoons of whey (I should use pickling lime but I can not find it locally) and let soak overnight. The next morning I bring three cups of water to a boil and then wisk in the cornmeal mixture. Bring to a boil again and then lower to a simmer for 5-7 minutes or whenever it looks done. We like it topped with molasses or honey or maple syrup and milk.
Whatever is left I put in a loaf pan and stick in the fridge. The next morning I slice it and fry it in butter. YUM!
