Cornmeal Mush - Great Depression Cooking - 10 Cent Meal - Poor Man's Meal

My parents grew up during the Great Depression and Cornmeal Mush is a breakfast that was eaten during that time. Even today, this is still a cheap meal and you can make it for 10 cents a serving. Grandpa loves it topped with brown sugar and cinnamon.

Dear Ms. Grandma Feral - you can greatly reduce the chance of lumps by adding 1 cup of cold water to the cornmeal and letting it stand while bringing the other 3 cups of water to the boil. Then add the wet cornmeal to the pot and do as you already do. Thank you for your history - please can we have some more 30's to 80's recipes.

[@GrandmaFeral]

Thank you for sharing that tip and for watching.👩

[@ConniRandwulf]

That's how my mom made it. I'm having a nice GMO-free bowl this morning . 🎉

[@danieljonhson6367]

I usually bring half of the water to a boil and add cornmeal mixed with water to it .

[@ATCDukes]

I put milk in mine.

[@sziltner]

I grew up with this and haven't had it for probably 70 years! But as soon as I get cornmeal in the pantry, I will relive my childhood favorite. At our house, we had it more for "supper".

[@GrandmaFeral]

Thank you for watching. Glad you will relive your childhood favorite. Stay Well👩

[@randyyoder4898]

At our house growing up we would have it at times for supper then mom would pour what is left over in a pan and put it in the refrigerator. Then in the morning she would take the firm version of it and cut it in about half inch slices and fry it in a pan with butter. We would have stewed crackers, mush, eggs and scrapple. With tomato gravy or beef gravy. Yummy

I just read corn meal mush recipe in my grandmas 1956 Betty Crocker cookbook she got before she got married in 1955 that I’m learning how to cook out of. I couldn’t figure out the recipe so I came to KZbin. 😃 I am excited to make it tomorrow for my 3 boys, and yes it is in the supper section

Oh my gosh, I completely forgot about eating this. My mother made this for me when I was young, I'm in my mid 60's now. I ate it quite frequently, I enjoyed mine with a little milk and white sugar. I'm going to make it soon, thanks for the memories.

When I was about 10 my mom asked me if I would like to eat something from her childhood. I always thought my mom was a great cook n my mom was born 1923 n the oldest of 14. She made cornmeal n a pot of beans with all of the seasoning that grew in her window sill in Puerto Rico. I really enjoyed that plate n she smiles and said its poor peoples food. She really worked miracles with what she had at hand

We grew up eating this alot. We added butter and honey. Our favorite way to eat it was fried though. The night before make your mush, take a bread pan and grease it with bacon grease. Add your warm mush to pan and pop in cold oven. Let set in oven over night. In the morning turn out, cut thick slices and fry on griddle with bacon grease. Can take with you to eat on the go.

Cornmeal mush is wonderful stuff, nutritious, delicious and very economical; thank you, dear Grandma Feral, for sharing this recipe, accompanied by a story that reminded me of my mother's tales of eating _polenta_ (Italian for "cornmeal mush," FTR) for breakfast, lunch and dinner during her childhood during the First Great Depression. As a vegetarian, I appreciate grain-based dishes, and look forward to experimenting with adapting your basic recipe in future. All best to you & Grandpa Feral, and love to the kittehs of your outdoor clowder; stay safe, well & pawsitive.

WALMART sells tubes of pre-made Polenta. Its not full of preservatives either. Its usually in the baking Isle, if not just ask or you can Google shop it on your phone to find the location of it in your local Walmart store. It still sells for under 3 dollars. You can slice it and warm it in the microwave and add warm milk to make it into cereal in a bowl add your own toppings or fruit.. Or you can slice it and fry it in butter in a non stick pan and use the fried Polenta slice for a sandwich or serve it with bacon and an egg. You can also use it in thin slices to make a Polenta lasagna if you layer it with spaghetti sauce and shredded cheese and bake in the oven. Or you can fry it and serve it with a scoop of ice cream or chocolate sauce. Its very versatile and so many ways to make it tasty. I hope you try it out, maybe make a video of it and see how Grandpa likes it. 🥰

When I was young we had farina, and oats. I never tried grits until I was older, I love them!

We were so poor my mother couldn't even buy corn meal. Now that I'm 65 and older I tried cooking different things with corn meal such as corn bread. It's good. I never thought about putting brown sugar and cinnamon on it. That looks delicious.

Hi Linda I like corn bread also. Thank you so much for watching and have a good day❤️Grandma👩🏻

I learned this recipe recently. I like it with some hot sauce as it reminds me of tamales. It's cheap and filling. I can't ask for much more than that.

I have a salt allergy which is I get a very debilitating migraine with nausea when I eat food that has salt. I do not salt anything and many packaged food has sodium already in its ingredients.

[@GrandmaFeral]

That is why we cook all our meals from scratch. Packaged food have to much salt as you stated. Stay Well👩
