Hot water corn bread
Hot water cornbread is a Native American food item which is popular in the Southern United States.
European explorers learned to make cornmeal into cornbread from the indigenous people. Hot water cornbread is a mixture of cornmeal and water cooked in a skillet with cooking oil. The cornmeal is mixed with boiling water to make a batter. It is then placed in small portions in the hot oil, in the skillet and browned on both sides. The individual sizes generally range from two to five inches. This food item was made for many years by natives, long before European colonization. It was often dipped or covered with fresh honey.
