Metric Jesters Hoe Cakes Recipes
CORNMEAL HOECAKES
These cakes are named as such because the batter was smeared on the blade of a clean, buttered hoe and then held over the fire until done.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325°.
- Add the cornmeal to a heatproof medium bowl, preferably one with a spout for pouring; stir in the salt.
- Place the bowl in the oven for 5-8 minutes to warm the meal through and toast it lightly.
- Remove it from the oven as soon as it begins to deepen in color.
- Pour the boiling water into the warm cornmeal, about ½ cup at a time, being cautious of the hot bowl.
- Stir vigorously, eliminating any lumps; then mix in the milk.
- The batter will resemble a thick gruel; warm a griddle or large heavy skillet over medium heat.
- Add just enough drippings to coat the surface with a thin film.
- Spoon the batter by tablespoonfuls onto the griddle, leaving several inches between the dollops.
- With the back of a spatula, squash the batter down into cakes about 3 inches in diameter (the batter should bubble merrily; if it splatters menacingly, the griddle is too hot; lower the heat before continuing).
- Make as many cakes as you can fit without crowding.
- Cook the cakes until the batter appears quite firm (3-4 minutes); these take a little longer than traditional wheat-flour pancakes).
- Turn carefully and cook cakes on the other side until medium brown and crispy (about 3 minutes).
- Repeat with the remaining batter, adding a bit more water to the batter if it thickens and more fat to the griddle if necessary.
- The cakes are best right from the griddle but you can keep them warm in a low oven on baking sheets while you finish the entire batch; don't stack the cakes until serving time.
- Serve the hoecakes stacked on warm plates, topped with plenty of butter; pass the syrup separately to drizzle lightly over the cakes, if desired.

HOE CAKES
Farm hands would take the 'makings' into the fields. at lunch time they would knock the handle out of their hoe and use the blade for a griddle. While it was heating they mixed the batter. The result was simple corn flat bread. We've spiffied it up a bit and serve it topped with Real Maple Syrup and Eggs over medium on the side. After these, plain Pancakes sort of loose their appeal.

- If you plan to serve these within 20 minutes of cooking, preheat your oven to 200°In a medium bowl, sift together the cornmeal, salt, and sugar. Put the buttermilk and the onion in a blender and puree till it’s a homogenous liquid. Pour that plus 1/2 cup of the water into the cornmeal mixture and whisk to combine.
- You’re looking for something akin to slightly loose pancake batter — a batter that, when you drop it into the skillet, spreads on its own, bubbles up around the edges, splatters a little. If you need to add more water to accomplish this, add the remaining water increments.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Spoon 2 tablespoons of batter onto the edge of the pan to form 1 corn cake. If the batter sizzles a little, the pan’s ready. Continue to drop the batter around the perimeter of the pan, finishing off with one in the middle. Make sure you get as many of them in there as you can without letting them touch. Lower your heat slightly and cook on one side for about 3 minutes. When they’re brown on the cast-iron side and little bubbles are shooting up through the center of batter, flip and cook an additional 3 minutes. Transfer the browned hoecakes to a baking sheet and hold them in the oven till you’re ready to eat. Add another tablespoon of oil and continue with the next batch.
- If you, like my grandma, want to make these ahead and serve them a few hours later, warm them in a 375°F oven for 12-15 minutes. Do not use a microwave. The results will disappoint.
