2 eggs
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tbsp. sugar
2 c. sour milk or buttermilk
1/4 c. flour or 1/3 c. rice flour
1/2 lb. corn meal
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. cream of tartar
1/4 c. melted shortening

Beat the eggs; add salt and sugar; stir. Stir the soda into the milk and add to the egg mixture. Combine quickly with the flour, corn meal and cream of tartar. Stir in the melted shortening, lightly but thoroughly.

Turn into hot, greased shallow pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes. Fresh milk may be used in place of sour milk, in which case you need to omit the soda and sift 2 teaspoons of baking powder with the flour.
