CALAS
This is another old recipe from Chuck Taggart and it has been said that women in New Orleans used to sell these on the streets to workers early every morning as they hurried off to their jobs. They are sort of like a beignet. **Other variations are to serve with honey or Steen's Cane Syrup instead of the powdered sugar**

CALAS
The cala (pronounced cah-LAH) has roots in Ghana. In 18th century New Orleans, Creole women of color who had the day off from their domestic jobs sold them out of baskets, shouting, "Calas, belles, calas tout chauds!" (Beautiful calas, very hot!) Save for a few Creole grandmothers, who made them for special events like First Communion and Mardi Gras, calas had almost faded away. Since Hurricane Katrina, they have reappeared in some New Orleans restaurants, as a dessert or in the form of savory fritters made with wild rice and smoked catfish or with duck confit.

Steps:
- In a fryer or a deep pot, add oil to a depth of at least three inches, and bring to 360 degrees. In a large bowl, combine rice, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and nutmeg.
- In a small bowl, mix together eggs and vanilla. Add to rice mixture and stir with a fork until well blended. Keep mixture cool (below 70 degrees) so that it will not separate when dropped into hot oil.
- When oil is correct temperature, drop in heaping tablespoons of batter. Calas will brown on one side and turn themselves over. When browned on both sides, after about 5 minutes, remove them with a wire skimmer and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar, and serve hot.

GRANDMA CADDELL'S HOT CAKES
This recipe came from my grandmother, who made us hotcakes every Sunday morning. These are very lite and sweet enough to eat without syrup. She made these grapefruit-size. You could also put fruit on these and serve with no syrup as a desert. This is the only recipe our family has ever used. I made them for a friend once, and she liked them, but said they were sweet and tasted more like a crepe. Anyhow, they are quick and easy to make.

Steps:
- Mix all dry ingredients in a med. size bowl.
- Then add enough milk and stir until smooth.
- Add eggs.
- Add vanilla.
- Stir again.
- If needed, add more milk. The batter should be a bit on the thin consistency side.
- Let these set for about 5 min, and they will thicken a little.
- Drop batter on either a ungreased griddle, or a non stick fry pan on medium heat. The first pancake is always the test to see if your pan is on the right heat. You can make these any size you want, but grapefruit size is the way grandma always made them.
- This recipe can also be halved. And, these freeze up great! I freeze them for my family for a quick breakfast, or after school snack.

- Bring the water to a boil in a small, heavy-bottomed saucepan with a tight-fitting lid. Slowly pour in the rice and stir two or three times.

- Remove the pan from the heat and let it sit, still covered, for another 15 minutes to ensure maximum water absorption. Spread the cooked rice out in a large skillet and allow it to cool to room temperature.
