Everyone seems to have their own version of the popular New England dish. However, this version is unusual because it is made without eggs. Being a Southerner, I had never heard of this dish until I encountered it at a Yankee friend's dinner party. Now, it is a staple in my Thanksgiving dinner repertoire! Ingredients:
1 quart milk, scalded |
1/3 cup molasses |
1/3 cup brown sugar |
1/2 cup cornmeal |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1 teaspoon ground ginger |
3 tablespoons butter |
1 cup milk |
Directions:
1. Mix scalded milk and molasses. Mix sugar, corn meal, salt, cinnamon, and ginger, and add to the scalded milk and molasses mixture.
2. Cook slowly, stirring constantly, about 5 minutes. Pour into a prepared baking dish and dot with butter.
3. Bake 1 hour in a 300 degrees F oven. Remove from oven, stir in one cup of milk, and bake for 2 hours longer.
4. Serve warm. (I usually top this with vanilla ice cream.).
