This recipe was extracted from The complete cook book (1900) by Rees, Jennie Day Mrs., page 65. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

FRIED MUSH. Make a good smooth mush of one and a half cups of boiling water, one-half teaspoonful of salt and one-half cup of cornmeai stirred slowly into it, and boil briskly until well-cooked. Meal made of old corn is apt to be dryer than that made of new, so care should be taken not to get the mush too thick. When cold, add one egg and mix thoroughly with a wire potato masher or a strong cooking spoon — the egg must be worked thor- oughly through all of it — then add flour enough to make into cakes. Now put a spoonful of good, sweet lard

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
