Johnny or Journey Cakes.— Take a pint of Indian meal, mix a little salt with it, and as much boiling water as will form a batter. This will be about half a pint. Beat it well for several minutes, then spread it, to about the eighth of an inch in thickness, on a smooth piece of board. Place the board upright in front of a clear fire, and bake the cake. When well browned, cut it into squares, split these, put butter
Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
