1 c. corn meal, sifted
2 c. whole-wheat flour (unsifted)
2 tsp. baking soda
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 c. raisins, parboiled
3/4 c. molasses
2 c. buttermilk or sour milk

Add yeast to warm water. Add other ingredients and let dough rise. Work into biscuits and drop into hot fat.

This recipe will make 7 dozen biscuits. They can be frozen individually and store in plastic bags. When you work them up, don't let the biscuits rise too high. The fat should be slightly hotter than 350°F. If the fat should be too hot, the biscuits will be soggy in the center.
