Cornmeal Mush

2 cups cornmeal
2 to 3 teaspoons salt
2 cups cold water
6 cups boiling water

In a large mixing bowl, combine cornmeal, salt and cold water. When well mixed, stir in boiling water. Pour mixture into a large heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring it well and frequently until it boils. After mixture is boiling, cover the pan. Turn heat lower, but so that the mush simmers for 45 minutes.

Pour cooked cornmeal mush into a loaf pan. Chill until set.

Cut mush into 1/2-inch slices. Fry in butter or vegetable shortening until crispy around the edges. When browned on one side, turn to brown the other side.

Serve hot with honey or syrup.
