1 Batch \"Corn Bread\" recipe

Directions

When a gracious New Hampshire woman told me she remembered "cawn frittahs" from her childhood, I told her I did not know what "cawn" was.

"Why," she replied, "don't you have cawn frittahs in Tacomar?" She had dropped the r in corn, a very unfrugal thing for a Yankee to do. But she wasted nothing. She saved the dropped r and added it onto a word later in the sentence . . . thus my city of Tacoma became "Tacomar." She ate cawn frittahs throughout her childhood.

Thin down a bit of the Corn Bread batter (see recipe) with a little additional milk and fry it like pancakes. Wonderful with dinner! Some people like to add a little fresh hulled corn to the batter. I have even tried it with frozen corn kernels and the results are just fine.
