Cornmeal Griddle Cakes

 

Recipe By : " From the Farmers' Market " by Richard Sax with Sandra Gluck

Serving Size : 12 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : New Import

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 1/2 cups yellow cornmeal

1/4 cup flour

2 tablespoons sugar

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 cups buttermilk

2 tablespoons unsalted butter -- melted

1 egg -- separated

vegetable oil for frying

butter and maple syrup -- for serving

 

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients; pour in the buttermilk, melted

butter, and egg yolk. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.

 

2. In a separate bowl, beat the egg white until stiff but not dry. Gently fold

the egg white into the cornmeal batter.

 

3. Heat a griddle or wide heavy skillet over medium heat. Add enough vegetable

oil to film the bottom. Pour about 2-1/2 tablespoons of the batter for each

pancake; the batter should spread to about 3-1/2 inches wide. Cook until the

bottom surface is golden and the top is bubbly, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the

pancakes and cook until the second side is golden, about 2 minutes longer.

Transfer to a platter and keep warm while you fry the remaining pancakes. Serve

immediately, with butter and warm maple syrup.

 

Recipe from Oakgrove Mills in Pittstown, New Jersey. People from Oakgrove can be

found at several of the area's farmers' markets, selling plastic bags of freshly

ground cornmeal, buckwheat flour, and other grains. They also offer helpful

recipe cards for breads and other baked goods that use their grains.

 

Makes about 2 dozen 3 1/2-inch pancakes.
