CHAPTER XXXI

Serve with honey or maple syrup.

If this recipe for buckwheat cakes is followed, you should have good cakes, but much of their excellence depends on the flour.

Buy a small quantity of flour and try it before investing in a large quantity, as you cannot make good cakes from a poor brand of flour.
DELICIOUS CORN CAKES One cup of sweet milk heated to boiling point; stir in 2 heaping tablespoonfuls yellow, granulated cornmeal; add a tablespoonful of butter or lard and salt to taste.

As soon as the mixture has cooled, stir in 1 tablespoonful of wheat flour.

If the batter should be too thick, stir in enough cold, sweet milk to make it run easily from the spoon.
