Hominy Griddle Cakes.

1 pint of boiling water.

1 gill of fine breakfast hominy.

1/2 pint of flour.

1/2 pint of milk.

1 teaspoonful of salt.

1 egg,—two would be better.

Put the hominy and half the salt in the boiling water, and cook for half an hour, stirring frequently. At the end of that time take from the fire and add to it the milk, flour, and remainder of the salt, and beat vigorously for fifteen minutes; then add the eggs, whites and yolks beaten separately. Fry in very small cakes on a hot griddle.
