When I was a little girl I always wondered why my grandmother loved cornmeal mush. I am in my seventies now and I still wonder about that. Do any of you readers like cornmeal mush or have memories of family members who ate it?
1 quart boiling water
1 quart cold water
2 1/2 cups yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup white flour
1 1/4 tsp salt
1 1/4 tsp sugar
Put the cold water into a heavy 4-quart saucepan. Combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar and salt; stir into the cold water. Slowly add the boiling water while stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Cover and cook slowly for 1 hour until mixture glops slowly. Add 1/2 cup cornmeal 5 minutes before removing from the heat.
