Instructions

  1. Sift together half-cup flour and cup and a half meal, and add pinch of salt.
  2. Scald with boiling water and stir smooth.
  3. Then add two eggs well beaten, and thin with sweet milk — it will take about half a pint.
  4. Bake by spoonfuls on a hot, well-greased griddle — the batter must run very freely.
  5. Serve very hot with fresh sausage, or fried pigs' feet.
