Hoecakes have served as a staple food for many years
and have been given a multitude of names.
jonican or Johnny Cakes and corn pone.
referring to the ground cornmeal they are made from.
Pan-fried corn bread. Most southern people don't
consider the high rise sweetened stuff corn bread.
This is more like corn bread in the south.
I add the peppers and onions.
Use olive oil to make more heart-healthy.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups white cornmeal (fine-sifted)
1 1/2 cups boiling water
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup chopped onion, to taste
1/4 cup chopped red pepper or green pepper, to taste
2-3 tablespoons olive oil
Directions:
Mix ingredients together (except olive oil).
Let stand a few minutes.
Heat non-stick pan to low-medium heat.
Add the olive oil.
Pat down carefully to resemble a large pancake,cook slowly.
Use a large dinner plate to put over
hoecake so you can flip it without breaking.
Cook till light brown.
Best to cook slowly.
1Great with any southern meal.
