2 cups fine hominy—boiled and cold.
3 eggs.
3 cups sour milk. If sweet, add one teaspoonful cream tartar.
½ cup melted butter.
2 teaspoonfuls salt.
2 tablespoonfuls white sugar.
1 large cup flour.
1 teaspoonful soda.
Beat the hominy smooth; stir in the milk, then the butter, salt, and
sugar; next the eggs, which should first be well beaten; then the soda,
dissolved in hot water; lastly the flour.
There are no more delicious or wholesome muffins than these, if rightly
mixed and quickly baked.
