1/2 c. cornmeal
1 tsp. salt
1 c. water
1/2 c. milk
1 tbsp. melted lard
2 eggs, well beaten

Mix the cornmeal and salt in a saucepan; blend in the water. Bring rapidly to boiling. Stirring constantly, boil 5 minutes (mixture will be very thick). Blend in the milk and lard. Vigorously beat into well beaten eggs. Thoroughly grease a 1 1/2 quart casserole and heat 2-3 minutes in oven. Turn batter into hot casserole.

Bake at 400 degrees for 45-50 minutes or until bread tests done. Serve immediately with butter, gravy, or butter and syrup or honey. Makes 4 servings.
