Ash Cake (Cornbread)
  1. Measure out about 1 ½ cups of cornmeal into a bowl.

  2. Add some salt and sugar and whisk together.

  3. Slowly stream in about 1 cup of hot water while whisking to create a batter with a mashed potato-like consistency.

  4. Let the batter sit for about 5 minutes to allow the liquid to absorb.

  5. Grease a cast iron skillet with butter.

  6. Pour the batter into the greased skillet and spread it out.

  7. Cook the cornbread over medium-low heat for 10-15 minutes.

  8. Flip the cornbread over using a plate and cook the other side, adding more butter to the pan if needed.

  9. Cook until both sides are golden brown.
