2 cups corn meal
1 tablespoon shortening
2 tablespoons milk
Boiling water
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon salt
Place corn meal in a bowl, pour in enough boiling water to moisten, stirring all the while. Add shortening, stir and let cool. When cold, add egg, milk and salt. Bake in greased muffin tins at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes, or fry on the griddle.
