Scald one cup of cornmeal with two cups of boiling water, and then let cool. Now add

One and one-half cupfuls water, 80 degrees Fahrenheit,

Three tablespoonfuls of syrup,

One teaspoonful of salt,

One-quarter yeast cake,

Two cupfuls flour,

One-quarter teaspoonful baking soda.

Beat hard and then let rise overnight; then prepare as for buckwheat cakes.

Modern methods have eliminated the yeast and substituted baking powder, thus making a quicker mix. To prepare buckwheat cakes with baking powder, prepare a blend of flour as follows:

Two pounds of buckwheat,

One pound of wheat flour,

One cupful cornmeal,

One ounce of salt,

Three ounces of baking powder,

One-quarter ounce baking soda.

Sift three times to mix and then place in a dry container and use as required.
