Cherokee Puddin - cooking recipe

Ingredients

6 Tbsp. corn meal
1 qt. milk
1/2 pt. cold water
1/2 c. suet, chopped
3 Tbsp. brown sugar
1 c. molasses
1 tsp. soda
1 Tbsp. ginger
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
4 eggs

Preparation

Boil the milk.
Put cold water in the meal to wet it.
Pour meal into the boiling milk along with salt and suet.
Boil for a quarter hour and keep stirring.
If skim forms, remove it.
You add 1/2 cup cold milk, sugar and molasses.
Stir the soda first in the molasses.
Then add the spices.
Beat the yolks and the last thing is to put in the stiff beaten whites.
Grease or butter the pan and bake for an hour.
Because there'll be a little whey, let it cool for a while.
