Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt

Butter, as an accompaniment

Steps:

  • Combine sugar and salt with meal in large mixing bowl. Scald with boiling water and stir well. Thin immediately with milk to a mixture that will drop easily from spoon (additional milk may be necessary: mixture should be consistency of thin mashed potato).
