Savannah Hoe Cakes Recipes

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together, except for the frying oil, in a bowl until well combined.
• Heat the frying oil or butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Drop the batter into the hot skillet. Use about 2 tablespoons of batter per hoecake.
• Fry each hoecake until brown and crisp; turn each hoecake with a spatula, and then brown the other side. With a slotted spoon, remove each hoecake to drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
• Note: Leftover batter will keep in refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Steps:

• Add salt to cornmeal, then water, & lastly, 1 T of the bacon drippings.
• Heat the other T of drippings in a heavy iron skillet & make a round cake of cornmeal dough about 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick.
• Place in hot skillet & cook slowly on top of stove (or over open fire) until brown on one side, then turn & brown the other side.
• Serving size is approximate.

• I Have yet to serve these to someone who hasn't asked for the recipe.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, measure the corn meal and salt. Pour the boiling water over the corn meal and stir it up. The corn meal will swell up, absorbing the water, and making a very thick mash.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. You can use as little as two tablespoons of oil per panful, but it is a little easier to use 4-5 tablespoons of oil for each panful. Use your waistline and frying skill as the final judge. Now scoop up a little of the corn meal mush (about 1/4 cup) and shape it into a patty. It will still be warm from the boiling water, so don't burn your self. Plop the patty into the hot fat and get it to frying. Make some more, unti you have a panful. When the underside is crispy brown, turn them and cook the other side. When both sides are crispy and brown, transfer them to a plate to keep warm, and start another batch.

Steps:

• Mix meal and salt into a bowl.
• Add boiling water.
• Stir with spoon and mix well.
• Will form a stiff batter or dough.
• Drop rounded large spoonfuls (tbsp) into hot greased pan.
• Flatten into flat 1/4 inch thick circles.
• Cook until golden brown on each side, turning once, about 2 minutes per side.
• Strain on paper towel.
• Enjoy!
